The majority (78 per cent) of Danes are “very highly”, “highly” or “somewhat” concerned that having Donald Trump in the White House will cost them their pension savings, research from Sampension has revealed.
The research showed that many Danes fear that having Donald Trump as President will have a negative impact on their pension, with particular concerns around increased global uncertainty, trade war and resulting turmoil in the financial markets.
Sampension chief advisor, Helle Dalsgaard, acknowledged that it has been a “wild time in every way” since Trump was inaugurated.
“And this also applies to the financial markets, which during the period – not least as a result of the trade war and Trump’s various tariff announcements in this connection – have been characterized by great unrest and violent fluctuations,” he said.
