Transfer or inherit assets
Your membership with Prokon lasts your whole life - and beyond. Even if it is not a pleasant topic, many members are concerned with the question of how they want to deal with their shares in old age or at the end of their lives. We have compiled all the information you need here.
Passing on cooperative shares – for the next generation
Many members want to make timely arrangements – including with regard to their membership at Prokon. But it is much more than just a financial investment: it stands for sustainability, responsibility, and a lived energy transition.
So why cancel, when you can simply pass on your commitment?
By transferring your cooperative share – either in full or in part – you can give the gift of the future. For example, to your children, grandchildren or people who are close to your heart. In this way, your contribution to the energy transition stays alive and continues to work towards a sustainable energy future.
Two simple ways to transfer
Automatically inherited:
In the event of inheritance, your membership is automatically transferred to the heirs.
Transfer during lifetime:
You can consciously pass on your cooperative share today – with "warm hands".
