Streamlining FNPF’s Investments: Role of IFC

Fiji National Provident Fund’s (FNPF) engagement with International Finance Corporation (IFC) has helped the Fund to move into previously unexplored Investment Territories. This has helped the Fund in diversifying its investments and upskilling our staff. Co-Investments with IFC has resulted in reduction of Investment Risks through their expertise and risk sharing through both equity and debt funding. IFC’s involvement in Fiji and the setup of a local office has boosted FNPF’s investment confidence in the Global Market.

Employer Online Portal

The Fiji National Provident Fund (FNPF) is mandated by law to collect compulsory contributions from the employers for the retirement savings of all workers in Fiji. The employer pays 18% of which 8% is deducted from the employee’s salary. Employers are required to submit the contribution details on a monthly basis to the FNPF. Prior to 2016, these monthly contribution schedules (CS) were physically submitted and posted to member accounts manually. This process posed a number of challenges for the Fund.
