For those born in the 1990s and 2000s with higher incomes, it is still very necessary to buy personal pensions.
There are four main reasons:
First, enjoy the preferential treatment of personal income tax.
Now many people born in the 1990s and 2000s have very high income levels and need to pay personal income tax. The personal pension system is a tax-deferred pension system. If we participate, the income paid into the personal pension will not be subject to personal income tax. Of course, you will need to pay personal income tax when you receive it in the future. The specific tax rate will be determined based on the income level at that time.
For example, if the maximum annual payment is 12,000 yuan, and the personal income tax rate is 20%, this will save at least 2,400 yuan in personal income tax. This money can also form investment income. When you receive it in the future, if your income level is low, you may only be taxed at 3%.
Second, effectively control individuals’ uncontrolled consumption.
The personal pension system is a closed management of personal accounts, and generally cannot be withdrawn at will except under specified conditions. According to current information, the main reasons are reaching pension age, completely losing the ability to work, or leaving the country to settle down.
In real life, many people save money but don’t save much money. The main thing is to save and spend it for various reasons. However, after the personal pension is paid, it can only be used for future retirement, which is really good for yourself.
Chinese people have a strong sense of planning for a rainy day, and I believe many people will still choose to do so.
Third, enjoy higher investment returns.
Now that we deposit money in banks, the interest rates on deposits are getting lower and lower. At present, many banks have reduced the interest rate on three-year certificates of deposit to 2.9%. In our personal investment and financial management, we rarely see financial products with a yield of more than 5%.
However, since the end of last year, the state has promoted banks to issue specialized pension financial products, and the benchmark interest rate for performance comparison can actually reach 5% to 8%. At present, the sales scale has reached 260 billion.
Fourth, respond to the reduction in social security and pension benefits.
Pension insurance has three pillars. In the past, most people relied on the first pillar, social security pension. However, the current pension level of the first pillar has reached more than 3,000 yuan, which is a relatively high level. After all, according to the purpose of social income redistribution, the first pillar will be to protect the basics of society, and income will become increasingly equalized. In recent years, the slowdown in the adjustment of pension insurance benefits also shows that the level of benefits in the first pillar will not increase rapidly.
In order to reflect the gap in pension benefits in the future, the most important thing is to rely on corporate annuities or occupational annuities, as well as this part of personal pensions. If this reality is not recognized, future pension benefits will really not be very high.
The personal accounts of those born in the 1990s and those born in the 2000s are composed of individual payment parts and unit coordination parts. Because they are newcomers to pension insurance payments. When you retire, only personal account pensions and grassroots pensions participate in the assessment. They are not middle-aged people. The middle-aged people have been approved for transitional pensions that are regarded as contributions. They have joined the work after the implementation of social insurance, and they do not have seniority deemed to be contributions.
The above is a detailed introduction to the relevant knowledge about the laws and regulations related to pension insurance. I believe that through the above introduction, everyone should have an understanding of the laws and regulations related to pension insurance.
