This is a decent performance when looking at the fundamentals underlying the operating environment, which is still hostile and volatile on account of post pandemic spill over effects and the Russian invasion in Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe war largely has contributed to shortage of strategic commodities such as gas, crude oil and fertilizer resulting in unleashing inflationary pressures globally.\u201d said Mabulekesi.<\/p>\n<p>He also highlighted that the Fund declares a final bonus from an investment return achieved in that particular year, adding that their unique approach in managing the Pension Funds, enables them to achieve high investment returns, which enhance the pension benefits for the members.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNBM PAL Bonus policy is unique in the sense that whatever has been declared, is allocated to members\u2019 accounts, and this is an approach known as fully vested. This is in contrast to other players in the industry who retain part of the final bonus for economic smoothing in challenging years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur commitment is to declare Bonuses, which are above annual inflation in a particular year. In this regard a decent 17% bonus is above the average 9.3% inflation rate for the year 2021,\u201d explained Mabulekesi.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, Nico Pensions declared a 14% bonus while Old Mutual declared an 11% bonus, according to published statements from the two companies in the media.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/malawi\">Malawi<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Malawi.
