According to the government amendment, which still needs to be approved by Parliament, the following changes to pension savings will apply from next year:
o the threshold for the state contribution and the maximum amount of the contribution will be increased. In order to receive the allowance, you will have to save CZK 500 per month and the state will then contribute CZK 100. With each additional CZK 100 you deposit, the state contribution is to increase by CZK 20 up to CZK 340 (with a monthly deposit of CZK 1 700),Why not just rely on the state pension?
1) The pension system is already in trouble and it doesn't look like it will improve. Society is ageing, there are more seniors and the proportion of workers earning pensions is falling.
2) According to analyses, the replacement ratio of pensions to average wages will gradually fall to around 30%. Future pensioners will thus receive only about a third of what they used to earn.
3) Seniors are most at risk of poverty. Particularly after the loss of a partner, 15% of men and up to 60% of women are at risk of poverty and are at a long-term disadvantage in terms of pensions.
You do not have to rely on the state pension alone. Take matters into your own hands and start saving for your retirement. The sooner you start, the bigger the reserve you can build up and you can retire a millionaire, and that is no exaggeration.
