新增3种情形，可领取个人养老金

Core Viewpoint - The recent notification from the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security expands the scenarios under which individuals can withdraw personal pensions, enhancing flexibility and support for various financial needs, effective from September 1 [1][2]. Group 1: New Withdrawal Scenarios - The notification introduces three new scenarios for personal pension withdrawals: significant medical expenses exceeding the average disposable income in the province, receiving unemployment insurance for 12 months within the last two years, and currently receiving minimum living security [1][2]. - This expansion aims to provide dual protection of "pension + medical" and offers a safety net for unemployed individuals and low-income groups, promoting a positive cycle of labor accumulation [2]. Group 2: System Flexibility and Accessibility - The notification enhances the system's flexibility by allowing online applications and automatic verification through various national service platforms, making it easier for participants to access their funds [2]. - Participants can continue to contribute to their personal pension accounts even after making withdrawals, with specific conditions based on the reason for withdrawal [3]. Group 3: Development of Personal Pension System - The personal pension system, initiated in November 2022, is set for nationwide implementation by the end of 2024, with a current total of 297 pension funds, reflecting a growth of over 8% in total scale to 12.472 billion [4]. - The growth is driven by product expansion and positive investment returns, with approximately 90% of pension fund products yielding positive returns, boosting market confidence [4]. Group 4: Structural Challenges - Despite the rapid increase in account openings, the average annual contribution remains significantly below the policy limit, indicating a disparity between account growth and actual contributions [5]. - The current tax incentives are less attractive to low- and middle-income groups, suggesting a need for policy adjustments to lower contribution thresholds and diversify product offerings [5].
