Summary
The Africa Pensions Supervisors’ Network Programme, supported by FSD Africa (2021-2025), aims to increase pension coverage and assets in Sub-Saharan Africa, where coverage is currently only 9.6%. The initiative focuses on creating regulatory environments that encourage long-term savings and the investment of pension assets into the real sector, including collaboration with the Africa Pensions Supervisors Forum (APSF).
Key insights
- Pension assets in Africa account for less than 1% of global assets, and pension coverage is only 9.6%, which leaves a significant portion of the elderly vulnerable to old age poverty.
- The Africa Pensions Supervisors’ Network Programme seeks to implement holistic interventions to increase long-term retirement savings and establish a policy, regulatory, and industry environment that supports the investment of pension assets into the real sector.
- FSD Africa has provided support for the annual Africa Pensions Supervisors Forum (APSF), including the event held in Kigali on July 14-15, 2022, and has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the APSF to collaborate on various initiatives.
