A current market study expects millions of people to sign up in the very first year. Here we look at what is behind the figures and what they mean for your own decision.<\/p>\n<p>From 1 January 2027, the Altersvorsorgedepot will replace the Riester pension as the state-subsidized form of private retirement provision. The market research institute Sirius Campus has now examined how strongly the market will respond. We put the findings into context for you, with no product recommendation, just facts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In brief:<\/strong> The study &#8220;Altersvorsorge im Aufbruch&#8221; by the institute Sirius Campus (supported by the retirement provision specialist Aeiforia) forecasts, for the launch of the Altersvorsorgedepot in 2027, around <strong>4.5 million<\/strong> contracts. If providers market it intensively, the authors consider even up to <strong>10 million<\/strong> contracts possible. The basis is an online survey of 1,013 people eligible for the subsidy in April 2026<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a026541 elementor-widget elementor-widget-keydesign-button\" data-id=\"a026541\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"keydesign-button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"kd-widget-container\"><div class=\"kd-button-wrap\"><a class=\"kd-button elementor-button\" role=\"button\" data-text=\"join the waiting list\" href=\"https:\/\/altersvorsorgedepot-anbieter-vergleich.de\/en\/#newsletter\/\"><span class=\"kd-button__label\">join the waiting list<\/span><span class=\"kd-button__icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-arrow-right\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M190.5 66.9l22.2-22.2c9.4-9.4 24.6-9.4 33.9 0L441 239c9.4 9.4 9.4 24.6 0 33.9L246.6 467.3c-9.4 9.4-24.6 9.4-33.9 0l-22.2-22.2c-9.5-9.5-9.3-25 .4-34.3L311.4 296H24c-13.3 0-24-10.7-24-24v-32c0-13.3 10.7-24 24-24h287.4L190.9 101.2c-9.8-9.3-10-24.8-.4-34.3z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-58f4399 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"58f4399\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-60bb5c3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"60bb5c3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>The key points at a glance<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Of the roughly <strong>44 million<\/strong> people eligible for the subsidy in Germany, already <strong>58 percent<\/strong> know about the Altersvorsorgedepot.<\/li>\n<li>One third of those who know the product can imagine signing up. From this the study calculates <strong>4.5 million<\/strong> contracts for 2027.<\/li>\n<li>If savers contribute an average of around <strong>\u20ac100<\/strong> per year, that plus allowances gives an annual savings volume of about <strong>\u20ac7 billion<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>Despite the higher return potential, the majority prefer security: only <strong>9 percent<\/strong> would invest without a guarantee, <strong>44 percent<\/strong> choose an 80 percent guarantee, <strong>32 percent<\/strong> the full capital guarantee.<\/li>\n<li>Up to <strong>\u20ac64.8 billion<\/strong> from existing Riester contracts could be shifted into the new system.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span lang=\"EN-US\">What the forecast is based on<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Under the Retirement Provision Reform Act (2026), a maximum of two Altersvorsorgedepot accounts per person are permitted at the same time. Into each contract you can pay up to <strong>\u20ac6,840<\/strong> per year. With two contracts, your maximum annual contribution volume is therefore <strong>\u20ac13,680<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>With a third contract, the legal position changes fundamentally. It no longer counts as a certified retirement provision contract and is therefore not state-subsidized. The two-contract limit is thus a hard statutory barrier, not a recommendation.<\/p>\n<h2>The interest is there, but awareness has its limits<\/h2>\n<p>That 58 percent of those eligible already know about the Altersvorsorgedepot is remarkable for a product that cannot even be bought yet. The attention stems above all from the reporting around the legislative process. At the same time, the flip side is this: four out of ten people eligible for the subsidy have never heard of it.<\/p>\n<p>For you, as someone who is already informing yourself, that is rather good news. If you know the rules early, you make a considered decision at launch instead of having to fight your way through the offers only when signing up. How the Altersvorsorgedepot works in detail is explained in our article <a href=\"https:\/\/altersvorsorgedepot-anbieter-vergleich.de\/en\/blog\/how-does-the-altersvorsorgedepot-work\/\">How does the Altersvorsorgedepot work?<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>The majority want security, not a full equity allocation<\/h2>\n<p>One finding of the study is surprising in view of the often emphasized return potential: only <strong>9 percent<\/strong> of respondents would invest their money without any guarantee. The clear majority opt for security. <strong>44 percent<\/strong> prefer an 80 percent guarantee with moderate return potential, <strong>32 percent<\/strong> want their paid-in capital fully protected.<\/p>\n<p>This reveals a tension that many savers know: the head knows that a long investment horizon evens out fluctuations, yet the gut still calls for security. Both routes are possible within the Altersvorsorgedepot. Which <a href=\"https:\/\/altersvorsorgedepot-anbieter-vergleich.de\/en\/what-is\/contribution-guarantee-in-the-altersvorsorgedepot-optional-instead-of-mandatory\/\">contribution guarantee<\/a> suits you depends above all on how many years you have left until retirement. You will find guidance on this in our article <a href=\"https:\/\/altersvorsorgedepot-anbieter-vergleich.de\/en\/blog\/altersvorsorgedepot-advantages-and-disadvantages-what-speaks-for-it-and-what-does-not\/\">Advantages and disadvantages of the Altersvorsorgedepot<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In short:<\/strong> Higher return potential, yes, but with protection. Only a small minority want to do without a guarantee entirely. The Altersvorsorgedepot allows for both attitudes.<\/p>\n<h2>Riester comes under pressure<\/h2>\n<p>The study also quantifies how much capital could be set in motion. Up to <strong>\u20ac64.8 billion<\/strong> and thus more than a quarter of the roughly \u20ac225 billion Riester portfolio could move into the new subsidy system. For existing customers, this is above all a reminder to review their own situation.<\/p>\n<p>A switch is not automatic and does not make sense for everyone. Existing Riester contracts continue with full subsidies. Whether a transfer into the Altersvorsorgedepot is worthwhile for you depends on the contract, the costs and the remaining term.

Even so, something practical can be derived from the findings. The rush at launch is likely to be large, and with it the competition for customers. For you that is an opportunity: where many providers court the same savers, pressure builds on costs and terms.<\/p>\n<p>This is exactly where the difference lies between a good contract and a mediocre one. The study assumes an average contribution of around \u20ac1,100 per year. Over decades it makes a big difference whether that money sits in a low-cost securities account or in an expensive product. If you inform yourself beforehand and compare the terms, you will do considerably better in this first wave.<\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>The Sirius Campus study paints a clear picture: interest in the Altersvorsorgedepot is high, the 2027 launch will probably come with millions of contracts, and even the Riester portfolio is starting to move. In the end, what counts for you is less the big number than the question of what fits your situation. If you know the rules now and compare the terms at launch, you have a clear advantage.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The first providers launch on 1 January 2027.
