Development and Implementation of a Framework for Micro-Pensions in Jamaica
Institution: Financial Services Commission of Jamaica
Country: Jamaica
Project: Strengthening the Institutional Capacity of the Financial Services Commission of Jamaica
Sector: Financial
Abstract: The Financial Services Commission ("FSC") was established in August 2001 by virtue of the Financial Services Commission Act of 2001 ("FSC Act") as an autonomous body for regulating and supervising entities providing financial services that do not involve deposit-taking. The FSC is responsible for supervising the Insurance, Securities and Private Pensions Industries. Pursuant to the Pensions (Superannuation Funds and Retirement Schemes) Act, 2004 ("Pensions Act") and the FSC Act the FSC's mandate includes the national extension of pension coverage for both the formal and informal sectors. The FSC wishes to undertake a study to inform the development of an enabling environment for retirement savings through the promotion and facilitation of appropriate retirement products and/or mechanisms, particularly for vulnerable segments of the population. This will require a diagnostic study which will include an analysis of the existing pensions system, the wider financial sector (informal sector banking and savings, relevant insurance products, mobile money, etc.) and other salient issues such as national identification with a view to identifying innovative and evolving savings mechanisms which potentially can be utilized by the pensions industry and how these may best be facilitated by the existing regulatory framework and any necessary amendments thereto.
