BVG; Erster Teil: Zweck und Geltungsbereich
Art. 4 BVG · Freiwillige Versicherung
Arbeitnehmer und Selbstständigerwerbende, die der obligatorischen Versicherung nicht unterstellt sind, können sich nach diesem Gesetz freiwillig versichern lassen.
Die Bestimmungen über die obligatorische Versicherung, insbesondere die in Artikel 8 festgesetzten Einkommensgrenzen, gelten sinngemäss für die freiwillige Versicherung.
Selbstständigerwerbende haben ausserdem die Möglichkeit, sich ausschliesslich bei einer Vorsorgeeinrichtung im Bereich der weiter gehenden Vorsorge, insbesondere auch bei einer Vorsorgeeinrichtung, die nicht im Register für die berufliche Vorsorge eingetragen ist, zu versichern. In diesem Fall finden die Absätze 1 und 2 keine Anwendung.
Die von den Selbstständigerwerbenden geleisteten Beiträge und Einlagen in die Vorsorgeeinrichtung müssen dauernd der beruflichen Vorsorge dienen.
