PPK after 3 years. “Subsidies and multiplication of funds as part of a proven investment strategy”

– PPK works in such a way that if, as an employee, I declare participation in the program, putting aside 2 percent. from my salary, I get the same amount in the form of subsidies from the employer. These funds go to my PPK account and will be invested through investment funds – said Paweł Borys, president of the Polish Development Fund, in the “Newsroom” WP program. – When we are young, more of these funds are invested in the stock market, which is burdened with greater risk. The closer to retirement, the safer these funds are and invested in bonds. Despite the economic turbulence in the last 3 years related to the pandemic and war, this strategy turned out to be safe from the point of view of protecting funds. So, on the one hand, we use subsidies, and on the other hand, thanks to the investment strategy, we multiply funds – argues the president of PFR.
