Core view

Insurance: on April 21, the general office of the State Council issued the opinions on promoting the development of individual pension. The opinions made overall arrangements for China’s individual pension system from the aspects of overall requirements, participation scope, system model, payment level, tax policy, capital investment and receipt, operation and supervision, focusing on the following four points:

1. Scope of participation: workers who participate in the basic old-age insurance for urban employees or the basic old-age insurance for urban and rural residents in China.

2. System mode: the individual account system is implemented, and the payment is fully borne by the participants, and the full accumulation is implemented.

3. Payment level: the upper limit of participants’ annual payment of personal pension is 12000 yuan.

4. Fund investment and collection: participants can choose to purchase financial products that meet the requirements of bank financial management, savings deposits, commercial endowment insurance, public funds, etc. and meet the preferences of different investors. It can be withdrawn after reaching age, incapacitated or settling abroad.

The implementation of the individual pension policy marks the initial establishment of the “three pillars” system of China’s endowment insurance. At present, the degree of aging in China is deepening. According to the statistics of the National Bureau of statistics, at the end of 2021, China’s population aged 60 and over was 267.36 million, accounting for 18.9%, a year-on-year increase of 0.2pct; The population aged 65 and above is 200.56 million, accounting for 14.2%.

The risk control system is relatively perfect, and the head securities companies, funds, insurance and bank financial management with high investment and financial management level will take the lead in benefiting, which is expected to seize the first opportunity in the personal pension market. The personal pension system is expected to bring long-term and stable capital inflow to institutions, improve the anti cyclical ability of insurance and securities companies, promote institutions to deepen the transformation of wealth management and raise the valuation of companies, which has a great positive effect.
