Why take out Anw shortfall insurance?

The government wants surviving relatives to be assured of a basic income. That is why they can claim a benefit under the Surviving Dependants Act (Anw). This is subject to conditions.

Your partner receives an Anw benefit if:

- your partner has not yet reached the state pension age; and

- your partner is taking care of their own child, foster child or stepchild, who is under the age of 18; or

- your partner is at least 45% incapacitated for work.

The amount of the Anw benefit depends on your partner's income. If your partner has an income from work or in connection with work, such as a disability or unemployment benefit, that income is deducted in full or in part from the Anw benefit.

Therefore, an Anw benefit is uncertain and the amount of any benefit may be low because of other income. Anw shortfall insurance may offer the solution. This insurance stipulates few conditions for a benefit, and the amount of the benefit is guaranteed.
