245 _aSelection of Retirement Saving Plan for a Private-sector Employee in Pakistan
300 _a32-34 p.
520 _aTehmina Khan, a 35-year-old, married mother of two, had been working as an assistant professor at a private sector university, University of Management and Information (UMI), School of Business. For the last few years, she had been saving for her retirement via a provident fund (PF) with her employer. The fund had been posting generous returns for years up until July 2018, when it posted earnings well below the inflation rate for the same period. Tehmina wanted to be financially self-sufficient in her post-retirement years and sought no financial dependence on her posterity for that matter. The meagre returns heightened her concerns about the future eventualities, so she had to decide if she should switch to another retirement plan. She needed to explore alternative retirement plans and identify how she could participate in a voluntary pension system (VPS) outside her employer’s PF. Also, if she decided to go ahead with VPS, she had to decide which asset management company(s) and portfolio manager(s) to allocate her savings to. The case comprehensively discusses the details about different retirement benefits and mechanisms and distinguishes aspects of private and public sector retirement plans in Pakistan. Most importantly, the case includes data on the performance of seventeen out of a total of nineteen pension plans operating in Pakistan. It also includes data on asset allocations of pension funds; overall macroeconomic, historical and stock market performances; and yield curve for the last 10 years.
