The N = 52 nucleus {sup 98}Pd was investigated at the Cologne TANDEM accelerator both with the Cologne plunger using the recoil distance Doppler-shift method (RDDS) and with the Cologne HORUS spectrometer for a {gamma}{gamma} angular correlation experiment. For the first time lifetimes of yrast states and highly excited low-spin states were measured in {sup 98}Pd and the low-spin level scheme was extended. From our data we were able to interpret {sup 98}Pd as a nucleus that exhibits some collective features, but is obviously much less collective than the neighboring N = 52 isotones {sup 94}Mo and {sup 96}Ru due to its closeness to doubly-magic {sup 100}Sn.
