Rarely known but very useful: The Deutsche Rentenversicherung finances important social science research in the area of old-age security. Since 2001 this is institutionally organized in the Forschungsnetzwerk Alterssicherung (FNA) which supports research projects, research scholarships, workshops, a research award and a graduate colloquium.
In order to secure the quality of this research Deutsche Rentenversicherung institutionalized a Board consisting of 16 members, eight of which are representatives of Deutsche Rentenversicherung and eight more are scientists from various disciplines. On October this year Deutsche Rentenversicherung appointed Frank Nullmeier for a three-year term as a member of this Board.
