What exactly is a pension fund?

In addition to this, you will need to know more about it.

A pension fund (or retirement) is a financial instrument, long-term savings , the main purpose of which is to accumulate a sum of money for life after retirement. It is generally common to save for retirement through a pension fund which also includes insurance against incapacity for work, invalidity or even for heirs. Thus, beyond traditional retirement savings, the pension fund contains two insurance elements: a pension for the heirs (the beneficiaries) , designed to guarantee that in the event of death, a monthly pension will be paid to the family members (spouse and children under the age of 21), and an invalidity pension designed to financially support the family, in the event of accidents or serious injuries that would prevent them from continuing to work.

Ultimately, it is this money accumulated over the years that will determine the standard of living when one stops working, and so it is a very significant fact to take into account. The accumulated sums of money can be received at the appropriate time (i.e. at retirement age) by means of a monthly annuity and, in some cases, in the form of a lump sum. If you want to withdraw the funds before retirement age, you will have to pay 35% tax. The high tax aims to prevent premature withdrawal, as the state seeks to prevent by all means the boarders depend on it (through social benefits) and thus tries as much as possible to encourage investment long term through long term investments.

It is important to remember that both employer and employee are entitled to tax benefits under the pension fund provisions. The law allows the employer to set aside up to 7.5% of the employee's salary (in addition to 8.33% as compensation) and for the employee, the law allows up to 7% of his salary. The accumulated retirement savings are in fact a combination of the funds transferred by the employee and the employer, the amount of the deposits being determined according to the percentage of the salary.
