The Deputy Minister of SOEs, I Pahala Nugraha Mansury, said that the Ministry of SOEs is trying to normalize the management of the BUMN pension funds so that everything will go better.

“We are trying to standardize the management of public pension funds. Some are good, some are still not. This is indeed a reform effort because so far there has been a lot management, and maybe not managed by people who are experts,” he said, Tuesday (01/24/2023).

According to him, the management of public pension funds must be carried out by experts. This way you get maximum results. He also hopes pension funds won’t be run by retirees who don’t understand investment management.

He pointed out that each BUMN is allowed to have its own pension fund. In Erick’s initial data collection, 35% of pension funds are healthy, but 65% need attention.

“We are fixing it so that retired BUMN employees will become a problem in the future, don’t let the BUMN assets that were there disappear and are not maximized,” he explained.

Currently, each public company manages its own pension fund and is managed by retirees. He stressed that he wanted to have certainty about these retirees with professional management. This way, the Jiwasraya and Asabri cases related to misappropriation of investment assets will not happen again.

“We are consolidating all admins, if there are further findings we will take strong action like Jiwasraya and Asabri. [Dapen BUMN] extraordinary potential, as long as there is time, benchmarking with Singapore and Canada, all of this is encouraged, so that it becomes a highlight in the coming 2023,” added Erick.
