For many working people, the abbreviation NPF does not mean anything at all. However, it is they who should think about what they will live on when they reach retirement age. The system of calculating pensions that took shape in Soviet times does not work today, and this is due, first of all, to the ratio of the number of pensioners and workers.

According to statistics, in the 1970s, there were about 2.5 workers per one pensioner, thanks to which he could receive a decent pension, which allowed him to live and buy everything he needed.

In modern realities, due to an increase in the number of elderly people and a decrease in the number of children born, this ratio has changed for the worse - there are about 1.12 workers per pensioner. In connection with the current trend, this ratio will decrease, which is why the burden of providing for pensioners is falling on working people, and the latter begin to suffer from lack of funds.

In order to solve this problem, the state carried out a pension reform. Its essence lies in the fact that now a person's earnings are divided into two parts - distributive and funded. The first of them is proportionally divided among the existing pensioners, and the second remains in the possession of the employee, and will be paid to him upon reaching the required age. In order to avoid inflationary losses, these funds must be in circulation.

In order to ensure the safety of the funded part, special non-state pension funds (NPF) were created, which manage it. This part of the money is not spent, but is saved through investment. The system is organized in such a way that a person can independently choose whom to entrust the cumulative part of deductions. The firm that manages this portion of the savings is called the compulsory pension insurance provider.

If a person does not take any action regarding the funded part, it is sent to the disposal of the Pension Fund of Russia. This organization makes an accumulative deposit in Vnesheconombank. The yield on such a deposit is about 7% per annum. The non-state pension fund provides a yield of about 10% per annum, which compares favorably with the state fund. It is also worth noting that a state institution can invest money only with the involvement of one firm, while a non-state institution is not limited by any number of counterparties. The investor should know that it is impossible to make a fatal mistake when choosing such a company due to the peculiarities of its functioning, since they all obey the legislation in this area, and undergo annual checks at the Central Bank. Each such company without fail provides the depositor with a guarantee of the safety of funds.

In this article, we will find out why NPFs are needed, what they are, what to look for when choosing such a company, and we will also compile a rating of the best institutions that provide quality services for saving and increasing the savings of employees.

Selection criteria for NPF

  1. Reliability. This is one of the most important parameters for assessing a pension fund. The pension system is organized in such a way as to protect cash deposits - the entire amount of savings is insured in full, thanks to which a person can be sure that in old age he will not be left without money. There are various annual ratings carried out by specialized analytical agencies. As a result of comparing the list of parameters, a certain category is assigned to each background. The highest rating of such an institution is AAA, it testifies to the best reliability among all competitors.
  2. Work period. The longer the period of activity of the organization in the field of pension provision, the more experience it has, it has a large base and is able to adapt to any market conditions.
  3. Number of insured. This indicator tells how many people work with this organization. If the company has less than a million customers, it is not recommended to trust it with your funds.
  4. Profitability. This indicator has a comprehensive assessment, and is compiled on the basis of several components. You need to understand that some rating agencies specifically select indicators in such a way as to bring the organization they need to the first place. This is due to the fact that the profitability parameter has several modifications - profitability over the last year, average profitability over 10 years, accumulated profitability, and they are all calculated in different ways, and some also depend on the period of activity.
  5. Accompanying services. This parameter is not so important when choosing a company, but it affects the convenience of using its services. According to the recommendations of specialists, it is necessary to clarify whether the company has an official website, a personal account for each user, how quickly and efficiently the technical support works.
  6. Office location. It is best to choose a company that has a branch in your hometown, since some issues can be resolved only with a personal visit to the organization.

An important nuance. You can change your pension fund no more than once a year. However, if 5 years have not passed during the period of working with the company, you will lose all interest on the investment. Many do not know this nuance, as a result of which they lose significant amounts of money that could work and receive income. In order to find out what is the period of your work with the insurer, you need to go to the website of the State Service in the section "Notice of the state of the personal account in the FIU". Having received the document, you will find out how much of your savings you have and with which organization you have a contractual relationship. Here you can find out the date of the agreement with the fund.

Rating of the best NPF for citizens of the Russian Federation in terms of reliability

It should be noted right away that there is no single and universally recognized rating for reliability and profitability. Most analytical agencies rely on ratings compiled by an independent credit agency called Expert RA, according to the Central Bank and other well-known sources. All accredited funds are subdivided into four types of categories according to the "reliability" parameter, each of which is assigned a letter designation. So, institutions that have been assigned the AAA category have the best reliability.

Conclusion

Before choosing an NPF, we recommend that you figure out what it is and what advantages it has in comparison with government agencies.

It is important to find the right balance between the company's profitability and its reliability, because no one wants to lose all the accumulated funds, and the innate sense of greed does not allow to get less than it was possible.

It is not always possible to choose the terms of which company is better, because many companies openly declare their advantages, but are silent about the disadvantages. The main problem is that the client learns about unpleasant moments only at the stage of concluding a contract, when a consultant is nearby and convincingly tells that you will not find a better company.

We recommend that you approach the choice of NPF carefully and not make rash decisions, since the money you want to entrust them is earned by hard work. We hope that our article will help you make the right choice!
