What is Tier 2?

The Tier 2 Pension Scheme is a mandatory, employer-sponsored pension arrangement under Ghana’s three-tier pension system. It is a defined contribution plan, where 5% of your basic salary is set aside and invested by a licensed trustee like us, ensuring your money grows steadily over time. Unlike Tier 1 (managed by SSNIT), Tier 2 is fully funded and privately managed, giving you greater security and transparency.

Purpose of Tier 2?

The goal of Tier 2 is simple: to provide you with a reliable retirement income that complements your Tier 1 benefits. It ensures that when you retire, you have access to a lump sum payment, empowering you to maintain financial independence and enjoy peace of mind after years of work.
