Then call the manager again to check yourself on the list of creditors.
Reliability and profitability of the fund

Services for individuals
The level of profitability of the non-state fund is high due to the large-scale investment of funds from the company’s clients. The NPF offers its potential clients an individual pension program aimed at increasing the income of policyholders by investing deposits. The conditions provided to individuals are adapted to the wishes and capabilities of clients.

When concluding an agreement with a company, policyholders are given the opportunity to independently control the amount of deposits and the period of their payment. The fund guarantees its clients annual accruals by increasing the company's profitability through investing deposits.
It should be taken into account that the initial payment when concluding an agreement with the company is 10,000. The size of subsequent contributions, as well as the periods for making them, is regulated by the client independently.
Can NPFs be trusted?
Many citizens who have the right to control how their future pension provision will be formed, although they decided to transfer part of the insurance contributions to the funded part, however, left it in the state fund. This position is motivated by many by the fact that savings in the Pension Fund are more secure.
Important! By saving money in the Russian Pension Fund, citizens have virtually no influence on the size of their future pension, since the amount of savings increases (is indexed) only within the framework of inflation.
NPFs propose to increase future pensions through investment income, which is generated as a result of investing pension funds of citizens in various projects (mainly shares and other securities). So is there a risk of losing your pension by forming it in a non-state pension fund?
The answer to this question is somewhat ambiguous. There is no need to worry about the amounts that the employer or the citizen himself transfers to the funded portion. Federal legislation provides for comprehensive measures to control the activities of non-state pension funds. In addition, “pension” money cannot be recovered for obligations of a non-state fund that arose for any reason.
However, the pension is transferred to a non-state pension fund to receive income from investments. No fund can guarantee this. The loss of investment income may well occur due to financial problems of a non-state pension fund, but it is also lost, for example, when moving from one fund to another more often than once every 5 years.
In addition to the accumulation and formation of funded pensions, which occurs within the framework of compulsory pension insurance, NPFs actively enter into voluntary pension insurance agreements. State guarantees of the safety of funds do not apply to these savings. In this regard, there is a risk that in the event of bankruptcy or revocation of the fund’s license, they will be lost.
From the above it follows that NPFs can be trusted and placing the funded part of the pension on their accounts does not imply the risk of its loss. At the same time, the termination of the fund’s activities often causes the loss of investment income and funds placed under voluntary pension insurance contracts.
The most common reason for the termination of the activities of the organizations in question is the revocation of the license, which occurs on the initiative of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation.
List of non-state funds whose license has been revoked
The first non-state pension funds began to appear around the mid-90s, but they did not yet participate in the compulsory pension system. After citizens were allowed to transfer pension savings to NPF accounts, control over the latter’s activities increased significantly. The Central Bank of the Russian Federation annually due to their failure to comply with legal requirements.
The largest organizations that have closed in recent years are:
- "Power";
- "Sun. Life. Pension";
- "Protecting the future";
- "Sunny Time";
- "Adekta-Pension";
- "Povolzhsky";
- Mechel-Fond;
- "Siberian Capital".
The activities of these organizations with revoked accreditation have now been discontinued.
Why can an NPF license be revoked?
For an organization to be deprived of a license to operate within the framework of an OPS, there must be a compelling reason. The Central Bank of the Russian Federation makes a similar decision in the following cases:
- concealment or unreliability of information provided to the regulator;
- lack of sufficient working capital;
- high investment risks;
- violation of legal norms when investing.
- refusal to transfer funds to other non-state pension funds in the event of a corresponding expression of the client’s will;
- placement of assets in credit institutions that do not meet the requirements imposed on them by law.
Reference! When a violation is detected, the Central Bank of the Russian Federation, as a rule, issues an order to eliminate it, and the license is revoked only if it remains unfulfilled.
The Deposit Insurance Agency (DIA) operates a special pension savings guarantee fund. It was created to protect the rights and interests of citizens insured in the compulsory health insurance system.
Each NPF has an obligation to transfer funds to this fund.
If a system participant’s license is revoked, the DIA will compensate the organization’s clients for lost funds.
Thus, the state guarantees the safety of citizens’ pension savings within the framework of the pension fund.
What will happen to savings if the NPF goes bankrupt?
In accordance with the current legal norms, after the revocation of the license, temporary managers are appointed, whose responsibility is to transfer all funds to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation with the subsequent liquidation of the fund as a legal entity.
The funded pension, from the moment the license is revoked, goes to the Pension Fund. In this regard, the citizen must submit an appropriate application to choose another insurer before the end of the calendar year.
If the client of an unreliable fund decides to leave his savings in the Pension Fund, then he does not need to take any action.

When will the third compensation for 1991 deposits be paid?
The amount of compensation depends on the period of storage of deposits and is determined using the following coefficients:
The amount of triple (double) compensation is reduced by the amount of previously acquired preparatory compensation (compensation) and additional compensation for deposits.
The amount and procedure for compensation payments are prescribed in Article 17 of the Federal Law of the Russian Federation of December 3, 2012 N 216-FZ “On the federal budget for 2013 and for the planning period of 2014 and 2020”, which also found that in 2013, 2014 and 2020 years, payment of compensation for people's savings will be carried out on the basis of the Federal Law of May 10, 1995 No. 73-FZ “On the restoration and protection of the savings of people of the Russian Federation.”
For deposits closed between June 20 and December 31, 1991, payments of triple or double compensation are not made.
According to the Federal Law of December 3, 2012 N 216-FZ and the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of December 25, 2009 No. 1092, the right to receive compensation for deposits listed as of June 20, 1991 in the accounts of Sberbank of the Russian Federation is granted to citizens of the Russian Federation in the following amounts:
