The Object of the Study is the management of pension assets - investment / placement of pension funds (pension savings and pension reserves). The Subject of the Study is the introduction of prudential (risk - oriented) supervision in order to improve the financial stability of non-state pension funds (NPF), ensuring the safety of pension assets. The purpose of the article is to analyze the main positions and principles of this supervision, its advantages and disadvantages. The Main Theoretical Aspects of the article: one of the basic goals of macroprudential supervision is creating conditions under which non-state pension funds would implement effective risk management which would improve the safety of pension assets. Among the tools of such supervision: stress testing, creating a risk management system in NPF and management companies participating in the pension system, proportional regulation. At the same time, macroprudential supervision does not exclude the establishment of capital requirements, corporate governance, restrictions on investment objects and the structure of the investment portfolio. In view of the introduction of such supervision, it is proposed to revise a number of requirements for non-state pension funds, as well as for the established restrictions on investing pension funds, e.g. to provide for the possibility of reducing the established requirement for the minimum amount of NPF's own funds, without reducing the requirements for the adequacy of assets for performance and obligations to depositors, participants, and insured persons). In view of the convergence of mandatory pension insurance (МPI) and non-state pension provision (NPP) systems and in connection with the new concept of the pension system under discussion it is proposed to abandon proportional regulation of the NPF's activities depending on the type of activity and to abandon differences in investment requirements in the MPI and NPP systems.

Non-state pension funds play an important role in the development of the economy. The development of the system of non-state pension provision, which includes non-state pension funds, complies with the main aspects of the Ukraine – 2020 Sustainable Development Strategy. The importance of selecting investment areas for non-state pension funds results in the need to further explore and find ways to improve the investment process. The purpose of the article is to develop theoretical and methodological aspects of investing assets of non-state pension funds in bonds. The study object is the investment activity of non-state pension funds. The following methods are used: vertical and horizontal analysis, SWOT analysis, regression analysis, graphical and tabular methods. It is determined that effective investment of non-state pension funds’ assets provides an increase in the value of assets, which in turn enables participants of non-state pension funds to enhance the quality of life. Involving non-state pension funds in the stock market and their interaction with other entities in this market are illustrated by the investment in bonds example. The market of bonds in Ukraine for 2013-2017 has been analyzed and the tendency towards development has been determined. The possibilities and threats of investment of non-state pension funds’ assets in bonds are substantiated. The approach to determining the impact of factors on the government bond yields, in particular, bonds of domestic state loans and bonds of enterprises has been further developed. This approach, unlike the existing ones, provides for the use of regression analysis and takes into account changes in the environment according to factors (consumer price index and household income for government bonds, the number of enterprises and the discount rate of the National Bank of Ukraine for bonds of enterprises). That is of practical importance and will make it possible to improve the investment strategy of non-state pension fund assets in bonds.

The problem of lack of interest of the population to participate in the formation of pension savings is one of the key problems of private pension funds. Accounting and registration of various rights, licensing and accreditation of institutions, establishment of norms, quotas and other restrictions, control and supervision, as well as the application of material sanctions and measures of administrative coercion are state regulation of private pension provision. The National Securities and Stock Market Commission, the National Bank of Ukraine, and the Antimonopoly Committee of Ukraine exercise state supervision and control over the activities of non-state pension funds. The current distribution of powers to oversee the activities of private pension funds between regulators is not effective enough. State intervention in the field of private pension funds should be timely, appropriate and limited. The need to invest heavily in setting up an administrator and an asset management company significantly reduces the attractiveness of private pension provision for potential investors, and the over-regulation of the institution under review reduces the level of confidence of ordinary citizens, employers and investors. The lack of components in the management system of non-state pension funds responsible for risk management and internal audit, the purpose of which is to protect against risks and exercise internal control, respectively, is a significant shortcoming of today. Ways to solve the above problems are, in particular: the unification of state regulators of the financial market in Ukraine and the creation of a mega-regulator for the activities of NPFs; abolition of normative legal acts, which in practice have proved their ineffectiveness, in terms of regulating the activities of NPFs, with the simultaneous adoption of new legislation that would “reduce the cost” of the mechanism of creation and operation of the institution of NPFs; implementation of EU Directive 2016/2341 of 14 December 2016 into the legislation of Ukraine regarding the functions of risk management and internal audit of NPFs; introduction of legal norms prohibiting, in particular, the National Bank of Ukraine from interfering in the activities of NPFs in terms of return of their assets by insolvent banks and investment activities, on grounds not expressly provided by the Law of Ukraine “On Non-State Pension Provision” and establishing legal grounds for personal liability persons for such actions.
