/PanARMENIAN.Net/ By the RA Government's decision, starting from
January 1, 2011 Armenia will pass to the cumulative pension system,
Vazgen Khachikyan, representative of the Armenian ministry of labor
and social affairs told a press conference on January 22 in Yerevan.
According to him, this system ensures a monthly payment (5 per cent
of salary) to citizens. Another 5% will be added to that amount,
provided that a wage would not surpass AMD 500 thousand.
"In this case, the maximum amount paid by the state, will reach AMD 25
thousand," Vazgen Khachikyan said. These funds will be transferred to
their personal accounts. Upon reaching the age of 63, the retirement
age in Armenia, a citizen can receive the accumulated money.
The pension will be paid monthly. The amount of payment will be
calculated based on the accumulated amount and the average life
expectancy of citizens. Today the average life expectancy of men is
70 years, and of women - 76.5 years in Armenia.
