Festina Finance wins Pensions Technology Provider of the Year Award

July 2026

Festina Finance has been awarded the prestigious “Pensions Technology Provider of the Year” title at the European Pensions Awards ceremony held in London last week.

Now in its 19th year, the European Pensions Awards recognise and celebrate investment firms, consultancies, and pension providers across Europe that demonstrate excellence in serving pension funds and advancing industry standards.

Festina Finance was recognised for its modular Life & Pension platform, which is enabling some of Europe’s largest pension providers to modernise legacy administration systems and support the Netherlands’ landmark pension reforms. Launched six years ago, the platform now supports six major pension organisations, representing nearly €1 trillion in assets and approximately nine million members.

Morten Schantz, Founder and Chair, at Festina Finance, said:
“We’re incredibly proud to receive this award. It is a strong recognition of the hard work and expertise of our team, and the trust our clients place in us to support some of the most complex pension transformation programmes in Europe. From the beginning, our ambition has been to help pension providers modernise with technology that is flexible, scalable, and built for the future. But our mission goes beyond delivering technology, we aim to shape the ongoing transformation of pensions administration across Europe.”
