My account

Becoming a participant of the 2nd pension pillar, an individual 2nd pension pillar account is open to you, where all the contributions made for you are recorded. Unlike a bank account in your pension account money is not stored directly, but is constantly being invested to make a profit and provide a bigger pension in old age.

After registration of contributions in your account the amount of money is being transferred to your chosen fund manager investment plan`s account in a custodian bank within five working days, while in your pension account corresponding number of units of the investment plan are registered. This means that choosing an investment plan, you with your 2nd pension pillar capital buy units of the investment plan.

Once additional contributions are made to your account, they will automatically be converted to your chosen investment plan units. Value of each unit of the investment plan at the start is EUR 1. Further the value of the investment plan unit varies depending on the investment performance of the plan. Based on the information about the value of the investment plan one unit on a given day, it is possible to calculate each person`s 2nd pension pillar`s accumulated capital at a given time.

So in your retirement account there are units of your chosen investment plan held, and if you want to know how much pension you have accumulated, multiply self-owned investment plan unit number with the value of the investment plan unit. The fund managers calculate and publish the daily value of the investment plan units every day, it is dependant on the performance of the investment plan.
