Good to know for newcomers
APS was established on 10 October 2010 after the creation of Sint Maarten as an independent country in the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
APS is one of the legal successors of the Algemeen Pensioenfonds Nederlandse Antillen (APNA), which arranged these pensions prior to the constitutional reform. The establishment and organisazation of APS have been our main focus in the last few years.
During this transition period we made our relationships with employers, participants, pensioners and partners a priority.
We did this by maintaining continuous communication and recruiting highly trained and experienced staff members.
For APS, the next 4 years are all about strengthening and expanding our position on Sint Maarten. Read more about our mission here.
