Norges Bank Pension Fund

Child pension

Surviving children of a deceased member are entitled to a child pension. The pension fund may also, under certain conditions, grant child pension to stepchildren and foster children that the deceased was supporting.

The pension ceases in the month after the child turns 20 years of age. Child pension can be extended to children over 20 years of age as long as the child is fully or permanently incapable of earning income due to illness or disability that arose before the child turned 20.

The child pension amounts to 15 percent of the deceased's pension base. For less than 30 years of accrual, the pension is reduced proportionally. As pensionable membership period counts the number of years the member would have accrued had they remained in the position until the retirement age, but not beyond age 67
