Recently, offers have been sent out on social networks and online advertisement platforms to provide intermediary services in obtaining pension savings above the minimum adequacy threshold (MAT) for any category of citizens at a low interest rate.

UAPF JSC warns its contributors and beneficiaries: receiving pension savings is possible only in cases strictly defined by the Social Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan. First of all, this is the onset of retirement age, permanent disability of group 1 or 2, leaving for permanent residence, inheritance. The following persons can use pension savings to improve housing conditions and / or medical treatment, subject to the legally established conditions:

• contributors with savings exceeding the minimum adequacy threshold (within the amount above the MAT);

• pensioners whose pension is at least 40% of lost income (previously received wages) - they can use up to 50% of the savings remaining in the account;

• pensioners by length of service (up to 100% of savings);

• contributors who have entered into a pension annuity agreement (up to 100% of savings).

Pension savings can only be used through authorized operators - second-tier banks. Accordingly, the services of intermediaries are not required. At the same time, the UAPF does not charge any commissions.

By agreeing to participate in dubious schemes, you not only risk losing your money, but also jeopardize the safety of your personal data, which can later be used for other fraudulent activities.

The UAPF strongly recommends that its contributors and beneficiaries ignore such offers, obtain information from official sources and act exclusively within the legal framework.
