For the employees of the German municipalities and their institutions there are 17 municipal supply institutions, which are partly responsible as regional funds for all municipalities in a certain catchment area, partly for the employees of a single city.
There are four supplementary pension funds for employees of church institutions, three for different areas of the Evangelical Church in Germany and one for the Catholic Church in Germany .

membership
Supplementary pension funds carry out the company pension scheme on behalf of the affiliated employers. These employers are referred to as members or participants depending on the fund. They are both customers and guarantors of the pension fund. The prerequisite for membership of an employer is the binding commitment of the corresponding pension scheme for all employees, usually by means of a collective agreement .
