The superintendent of Banking, Insurance and AFP, Socorro Heysen Zegarra, pointed out that “early withdrawals fail to comply with the good practice recommendations made by the OECD for the pension systems of member countries.”
Likewise, he specified that “it is not realistic to say that ‘we give the freedom’ to everyone to invest money however they want because everyone is going to achieve higher returns than pension funds.” Likewise, he added that this is not viable. “It is not true that pension funds have caused members to lose money”.
Along these lines, he asked to establish a consensus and propose a pension reform. “What we have to do is prioritize a reform, let’s look at all the proposals there are and how we can create a political consensus to carry out a well-done reform of the pension system,” she mentioned.
