Pension
Fund? Find out more about the Complementary Pension
The term pension fund refers to an instrument
through which the worker can take advantage of a supplementary pension.
More and more Italians, due to the poor prospects
of the pension paid by the state, are becoming interested in what it is, how it
works and what are the advantages of the pension fund .
But what
does "supplementary pension" mean?
It means that it integrates the work pension
accrued thanks to the payment of social security contributions to the relevant
management. Therefore, the amount of the supplementary pension is added to the
traditional pension and allows those who benefit from it to be able to
supplement their pension share.
In fact, pension funds are an increasingly useful
option for those who want to benefit from supplementary contributions.
By joining a supplementary pension fund, the worker
does nothing but set aside a sum with the primary objective of redeeming it at
the end of his professional life. This set aside sum is paid to the worker on a
monthly basis (annuity), just like with the traditional pension.
These amounts managed and administered by pension
funds are invested in the financial markets to generate income and earnings.
How is the contribution made? The contribution, or
the payment of the share to be allocated to the Pension Fund, is made up of 3
elements:
- The contribution to be paid by the worker;
-The contribution of the company;
-The severance pay
It is also possible to pay only the severance pay.
In this case, the employer is not obliged to pay his contribution. In a previous article I listed the benefits
generated by joining a Pension Fund,

The
recipients of the pension funds are:
·
employees, private and public;
·
working members and employees of production and
labor cooperatives;
·
self-employed workers and freelancers;
·
people who perform unpaid work in connection
with family responsibilities;
·
workers with another type of contract (e.g. a
project or occasional worker).
A way therefore to
ensure a peaceful future and not
to have problems with pension cuts that seem to be getting heavier and heavier.
By joining a pension fund you will not only have the monthly payment of the FERS, but also an additional form of contribution . By
making this type of investment you will have fewer problems for the future and
have financial stability even when you have finished work.
In the management of investments, complementary
pension schemes are required to strictly comply with the rules of prudence
defined by law. These rules must take into account the social security and
non-speculative purpose of the investment itself. Furthermore, all investments
must be adequately diversified and made taking into account the limits
indicated by the legislation in force.
This is in fact a very topical issue, relaunched by
a tax reform proposal, click here to read the article published in the
Republic.
Deductibility
and yield:
The tax
deductibility limit of the pension fund amounts to 5,164.57 Dollar per year . Up to this annual
ceiling, the contributions paid can be deducted. Furthermore, the yield is
subject to a substitute tax of 20%, a much lower rate than the ordinary rate of
26% envisaged for other types of investments.
Conclusions:
Joining a pension fund allows you to benefit from a higher return than the
severance pay left in the company ; enjoy
greater social security protection ; enjoy a series of tax advantages provided both in the contribution and
management phase, and when the pension benefit is obtained.
