General Information

Individual Pension System

The individual pension system is a savings system that allows you to make regular savings starting today to provide an additional income during your retirement period. If you reach the age of 56 and remain in the system for at least 10 years, you will receive additional income during your retirement. When you become eligible for retirement, you can withdraw your savings in a lump sum, regularly based on a repayment plan you define, or purchase an annual income insurance product.

Within the framework of your retirement plan, you have the right to choose the fund you want to invest in, select the level of risk you desire, and change your choices up to 12 times a year. Your savings are managed by professional fund managers in retirement investment funds.

Indıvıdual Retirement for Under 18s

As of July 2021, you can also include your children under 18 in the system as participants, contribute on their behalf, and receive a 30% state contribution payment for the contributions made. Since the participant child is under 18, the contract is signed by the legal representative and the child is enrolled in the Individual Pension System.

With the contribution payment protection guarantee in the 'My First Pension' plan, if one of the parents passes away, MetLife continues to pay the minimum amount defined in the plan until the participant child reaches the age of 18.

Since 2013, you can increase your savings by receiving a 30% state contribution on the contribution payment amounts paid. The total annual state contribution for all owned individual pension contracts cannot exceed 30% of the annual gross minimum wage.
