the Pension Fund called the size of the increase to the pension for the next three years. In the project the main characteristics of the budget of the FIU States that the average pension in 2021 will increase to 17 432 rubles. It’s a thousand more than this year. Experts say that indexing will be at least above the official inflation rate, but, to put it mildly, not much improve the welfare of pensioners.
the document identifies the size of the indexation of pensions next year and 6.3% in 2022-5.9% (18 357 rubles), in 2023 – to 5.6% (19 of 283 rubles).
the value of the fixed payment to insurance pension, which is paid in January, for 2021 is $ 6 044,48 rubles (in this year was 5686,25 rubles). 2022 year, pensioners will pay a lump sum 6401,10 rubles, and in 2023 – 6 759,56 rubles.
Social pension index lower than insurance. In 2021, the year – by 1.5%, in 2020, the year by 3.9%, in 2023, the year – by 3.7%. Recall that social pensions are paid to citizens on reaching retirement age, if the person does not have a confirmed employment history or insufficient for assignment of the labour pension, as well as the disabled, orphans, children who lost their breadwinner. The average size of social pensions will be 9 977 rubles next year, 10 307 693 rubles and 10 rubles in 2022 and 2023, respectively.
it is Noteworthy that allowances for pensioners will be held on the background of deficit of the budget of the FIU, experts say. The government of the law to increase pensions above inflation – this was the main condition of raising the retirement age. The authorities promised to increase the pensions on average for a thousand rubles a year and brought the average pension to twenty thousand by 2024, said Finance Minister Anton Siluanov.
“the indexation was included in the draft budget, and the deficit of the FIU was predictable and calculated. But we already see the gap from goals for 2024: two years – from 2021 to 2023-th – pensions will increase by only 1851 rubles. Although the indexation of pensions and block the official inflation rate. Compared with employed persons pensioners in the conditions of coronavirus has appeared in more favourable circumstances: their incomes fell, the pension paid on time and in full,” – said associate Professor of the Department of human resource management REU named after G. V. Plehanov Lyudmila Ivanova-Shvets.
“the indexation rate is decreasing every year because it reduced the official inflation rate. The dynamics of such guarantees the Bank that it has been targeting. Year-end inflation may be lower than 3%. In this regard, the indexation of pensions by a few percent above inflation – a fair decision. If inflation goes up, the size of the index can and to review – explains senior researcher of the scientific research financial Institute (nifi) Tatiana Omelchuk – Yes, the incomes pension system fell because some workers were fired, and their contributions are known, and paid the pensions of current recipients. But in many other countries, pensions are generally not indexed. The value of the pension system there to increase the size of new pensions.
Another question, why do we have low pension amounts. But the problem here is not in the pension system, and low salaries, which are deductions to the Pension Fund”.
