In 2001, after the preparation of legal infrastructure in Turkey, private pension fund system started to be complementary to the Social Security system. There are many expectations from the private pension fund system both socially and economically. Social expectation is to direct individuals to alternative investment instruments to provide additional income for retirement. Economic expectation is to provide long-term funding to support the economic development. Pension fund companies have the most important responsibility to meet these expectations. In this study, the profits of investment instruments and individual pension funds are compared in a long term perspective, using three basic portfolio performance measures. The term between January 2004 and September 2014 have been considered. Investment alternatives have been discussed in detail. BIST100, deposit, gold and currency basket (USD+EUR) are the investment instruments that are compared with individual pension funds. In addition, individual pension funds have been analyzed on company basis and the achievements of the pension fund companies have been revealed during the term mentioned above. According to our analysis, it has been concluded that personal retirement funds lost value considerably, especially due to inflation.

The article considers topical issues of determining the current state of development of the private pension system in Ukraine, and defines the concept of "private pension fund". In economic essence, the system of non-state pension fund is defined as an integral part of the system of accumulative pension provision, based on voluntary participation of individuals and legal entities in the formation of pension savings in order to receive additional pension contributions. Problems that hinder the development of private pension funds, namely the shadowing of wages and labor relations, lack of public awareness, lack of legislation are identified. The functioning of private pension funds in the country depends not only on reforming the existing pension system, but also on the growth of incomes, their de-shadowing and development of the financial market in general. The current pension system is not able to provide the population with the necessary pension assets. This problem can be solved by intensifying the activities of private pension funds. Emphasis is placed on the need and importance of a voluntary private pension system and its role in ensuring the development of the state economy. As world experience shows, in a market economy, the development of private pension funds is one of the important components to ensure effective functioning of the state. Private pension funds are powerful investment investors because they can mobilize additional investment resources. The main purpose of investing pension assets is to preserve the savings of the population. The main indicators of activity of non-state pension funds are analyzed, namely: pension contributions, pension payments, the number of concluded pension contracts, the amount of investment income, etc. Further trends in the development of private pension provision in Ukraine are noted, substantiated the necessary measures to intensify activities in modern economic conditions, proposed recommendations for solving existing problems of institutions. However, in implementing the proposed measures should be remembered participation of both individuals and legal entities.

The following paper studies the determinants of choosing a private pension fund institution by processing a questionnaire of 514 affiliates. The questionnaire attempts to measure perceptions of the consumer with respect to their private pension fund institution. Using a structural equation model, we found that socioeconomic variables are irrelevant but some perceptions like the return of portfolio and leadership of the private pension fund were relevant in the choice of a private pension fund institution. We contrast the model in two different periods of time between 2009 and 2016. The periods before and after financial turmoil in the stock market.

This paper attempts to set out some of the points of detail in the administration of a privately administered pension fund based on the practical experience of a large fund. The solutions offered to the problems arising have necessarily been reached in the context of a particular fund and do not claim to be the only, or even the best, answers for other funds; indeed the very problems may be different in other funds, particularly in smaller ones.It seems essential, therefore, to describe the main features of the fund in question.

Abstract Corporate social responsibility (CSR), as a concept that tackles economic, The introduction of private pension funds is the essence of the reform of the pension system in Serbia. Private pension funds in Serbia are based on voluntary benefits. Thus, the functioning of the pension system takes place in three interconnected processes: payments to a voluntary pension fund, investment of free funds, and ultimately programmed payments – pensions. The stability in the voluntary pension funds and the predictability of payments allow the quality of investment portfolio to be formed and achieve a long-term yield of investment. In this paper, we implement a well-known approximation method of Lagrange polynomial interpolation. We use it in order to find appropriate mathematical model for prediction of the number of fund members and the average salary in Serbia. This calculation is based on data (average salaries and fund member) from the last five years, i.e. from the period 2015-2019. We calculated the exact mathematical formula, then we compared the results and predictions obtained with that formula and with the formula from one of our previous works. In keeping with that, the appropriate conclusions were given..
