A Committee to Review Implementation of Informal Sector Pension was constituted under the Chairmanship of Shri G N Bajpai former Chairman, SEBI, LIC and also member of PFRDA NPS Trust. The Committee has submitted its report on 1st July, 2011. The report is accessible on http://pfrda.org.in/indexmain.asp?linkid=180. Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority( PFRDA) is inviting public comments and stakeholder’s views, before finalizing policy initiatives that require action as per recommendations of the Committee.
Pension regulator, PFRDA, today said that it would like to maintain the 50 per cent limit on investment in equities for the new pension fund, regardless of the recommendation of the Bajpai committee. We think that at the current stage of pension market in the country, investing more than 50 per cent in equities is not going to be fair to investors in terms of the risk that has to be taken, and therefore, we tend to retain the cap at 50 per cent, Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) Chairman, Mr Yogesh Agarwal, said on the sidelines of the 26th Skoch Summit here.
Taking forward financial sector reforms, the government today introduced a long-pending PFRDA Bill in the Lok Sabha to give statutory status to interim pension regulator and promoting old age income security. The Bill, introduced by Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee, provides for establishing a statutory regulatory body to be called the Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA), which will undertake promotional, developmental and regulatory functions in respect to pension funds.
The Union Cabinet today approved a long-pending bill, which is aimed at giving statutory power to the pension regulator PFRDA, paving way for introduction of the same in the current session of Parliament.The draft legislation is aimed at upgrading the status of the Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA), which has been functioning for the past eight years without Parliamentary approval.
The Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) today said the Bajpai committee report on overhauling the structure of all citizens’ pension scheme is expected by the end of this month. “They have committed that they would submit the report by end of this month,” PFRDA Chairman Yogesh Agarwal said on the sidelines of a seminar here.
Five months after taking charge as head of the Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA), Yogesh Agarwal has decided to take measures to ‘fix’ problems plaguing the New Pension Scheme (NPS), which has failed to attract voluntary subsc
Domestic savings are crucial, both for the national economy as well as for the people who save, particularly during recessionary times. This was proved once again, wherein unlike many Western countries, India remained fairly insulated from the recent global economic slowdown due to its relatively high level of savings. Ideally one should save 20-30 percent of his earning for future needs. For salaried people, savings are forced ones, thanks to tax saving plans. While in India, average savings are in the range of 30-32%, saving rate in Japan is 28%, and in US just 12 percent. Indian savings generally get parked in bank deposits, insurance products, provident fund & pension plan and mutual fund & capital market instruments.
The Interim Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) has authorized 40 institutions including public sector banks, private banks and the Department of Posts as Points of Presence (POPs) for selling the New Pension system (NPS) to the
