Discussion | Pension Fund Amendment Law risks for the elderly

JOHANNESBURG - Trade Union Solidarity says the two-pot retirement system poses a huge risk to pension funds and the livelihood of the elderly.

President Cyril Ramaphosa signed the Pension Fund Amendment Bill into law on Sunday.

Individuals will soon have access to a portion of their retirement funds for times of financial distress.

A separate portion will be preserved until retirement.

We discuss this with Solidarity's Deputy General Secretary, Marius Croucamp.
