Reform plans of Labor Minister Hubertus Heil (SPD) and Finance Minister Christian Lindner (FDP) are intended to gradually create a more sustainable basis for future pension financing. The pension level, which links pensions to wage developments, should be kept stable at 48 percent in the long term, said pension insurance president Gundula Roßbach.
