The article analyzes and evaluates the current state, problems and prospects for the development of the non-State pension funds in Ukraine. The issue of introduction of the pension system reform is considered, since pension provision is an important component of the socio-economic strategy of the country. The pension provision should function according to the principles of social justice and insurance principles, namely: all citizens of Ukraine are entitled to pensions, including the condition that those citizens who pay a larger amount of contributions or have more work experience than others have full right to and should receive a higher pension. The main purpose of the third level system is receiving additional pension payments to the mandatory State pension insurance by its participants, the advantage of which is to ensure a high level of return on pension assets compared to the level of inflation and attract investment resources necessary for the modernization of the domestic economy on a long-term basis. Currently, only the first and third levels of the pension system are operating in Ukraine. However, the third level of the domestic pension system still does not work with proper efficiency. The authors identify the problems of introduction of the accumulation system of pension provision in Ukraine (level 2) and the reasons for the inefficiency of the current system of the non-State pension provision (level 3). In order to develop a reliable and efficient system of the non-State pension provision, it is proposed to implement a number of measures that will contribute to economic growth and the effective functioning of the non-State pension funds in our country.

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.

The crisis in the field of social security of the population occurred in the process of transformation of economic relations, and, first of all, in the pension system. A reform of the pension system has been implementing for a sufficient period of time, in order to overcome the negative phenomena. Non-state pension funds (further NPFs) have been severely criticized by the Ministry of Health and Social Development to address the mandatory pension insurance system. Private organizations ineffectively manage the pension savings of citizens, and there is also a place for - the legalization of criminal proceeds, the ministry believes, which can be confirmed by the data published by the Bank of Russia on the revocation of licenses from a number of NPFs[1].The legalization of criminal proceeds is by itself a very negative phenomenon, which adversely affects the individual organization, the economy as a whole and social life, exerting a detrimental effect on the economic and national security of society and the state. Operations, to some extent related to the legalization of criminal proceeds, significantly increase the risk of loss of reputation for non-state pension funds. As a result, these monetary resources fall into the global financial system, and acquire the ability to undermine the national currency and the economies of individual countries, thus creating a threat to both national and international security. Keywords: Legalization of criminal proceeds, private pension funds, risk-oriented approach, internal control.

This article summarizes and systematizes key trends in the development of non-state pension funds (NPFs) in the exercise of the functions of trust management of pension savings of citizens for the period from 2005 to 2017. The participation of non-state pension funds in the compulsory pension insurance system has led to their emergence as the largest insurer, so starting from 2016, the NPF, as a large institutional investor, began to concentrate more than half of all pension savings funds transferred to management. A quantitative analysis of the institutional structure of the Russian system of trust management of the pension system means allows determining the main directions of its transformation; there is a clear tendency to a reduction: the total number of NPFs operating in the OPS system. The article defines the strategy of investing APFs in various classes of assets during the study period, it has been revealed that of the total amount of invested pension savings in corporate securities, 2/3 of them fall on NPF investments. Over the last analyzed period, there has been a sharp increase in the investment of pension savings of NPFs in government securities, which is largely due to the tightening of regulatory requirements for the risk level of portfolio investment. Important areas of research are evaluating the effectiveness of the functioning of APFs in the system of compulsory pension insurance from the position of comparing the accumulated return on the NPF portfolio with accumulated inflation for the period analyzed, and also according to the criterion of actually accumulated investment income with indexed income on inflation.

The article considers topical issues of determining the current state of development of the private pension system in Ukraine, and defines the concept of "private pension fund". In economic essence, the system of non-state pension fund is defined as an integral part of the system of accumulative pension provision, based on voluntary participation of individuals and legal entities in the formation of pension savings in order to receive additional pension contributions. Problems that hinder the development of private pension funds, namely the shadowing of wages and labor relations, lack of public awareness, lack of legislation are identified. The functioning of private pension funds in the country depends not only on reforming the existing pension system, but also on the growth of incomes, their de-shadowing and development of the financial market in general. The current pension system is not able to provide the population with the necessary pension assets. This problem can be solved by intensifying the activities of private pension funds. Emphasis is placed on the need and importance of a voluntary private pension system and its role in ensuring the development of the state economy. As world experience shows, in a market economy, the development of private pension funds is one of the important components to ensure effective functioning of the state. Private pension funds are powerful investment investors because they can mobilize additional investment resources. The main purpose of investing pension assets is to preserve the savings of the population. The main indicators of activity of non-state pension funds are analyzed, namely: pension contributions, pension payments, the number of concluded pension contracts, the amount of investment income, etc. Further trends in the development of private pension provision in Ukraine are noted, substantiated the necessary measures to intensify activities in modern economic conditions, proposed recommendations for solving existing problems of institutions. However, in implementing the proposed measures should be remembered participation of both individuals and legal entities.

Introduction. Pension provision in any country depends both on the state of the national economy and on the state regulation of social processes. The solidarity pension system in Ukraine does not provide a decent standard of living. Alternative, which allows creating an additional source of pension benefits, which are guaranteed by the state, and reducing the financial burden on the state, are non-state pension funds. Non-state pension funds provide non-state pension provision services by individualizing the accumulation of funds. Their main purpose is to ensure that people receive additional mandatory state pension insurance payments. After analysing different approaches to improving the system of non-state pension funds, the main indicators influencing pension payments are revealed. Purpose. The article aims to model the dynamics of key indicators, on which the payment of pensions in non-state pension funds depends. Methodology. In the process of writing a paper, we have used a number of scientific methods. The system approach is used as one of the main methods of scientific research. The MARSPline module is a component of Data Mining technology in the application package Statistica, techniques of mathematical modelling, in particular approximating polynomials in the process of modelling the dynamics of receipts and payments. The use of actuarial methods helps show how to determine the accumulated amount on individual accounts of participants in non-state pension funds. Results. Different methods and approaches to the evaluation of the activity of non-state pension funds have been analysed. The use of the sixth grade polynomial has made it possible to follow the dynamics of contracting for subsequent periods. It is determined by actuarial methods of accumulated amount on individual pension accounts with different options for contributing and charges interest thereon, allowing depositors to predict the amount of their investments. Using the MARSPline module Statistics program is constructed: a regression model of the dependence of a retirement asset on one person from contributions and investments of investments; Dependence of pension payments on contributions to individual accounts, income from investment of assets, expenses and the number of paid pensions, which allows calculation of future payments to participants, is revealed. The application of the fourth-level approximation polynomial makes it possible to determine the amounts of future retirement benefits in dynamics.

Due to the introduction of the digital economy on the territory of the Russian Federation and the urgency of the problem of implementing the distributed registry system (Blockchain) in various financial spheres, including the system of accounting for pension rights and obligations in the state and non-state pension systems, an attempt was made to assess the principles of implementing the Blockchain mechanism in the system of accounting for pension rights, insurance premiums and pension payments. The current system of centralized registries is based on the full confidence of its participants-clients. In particular, persons insured in the pension system. The non-transparency of the non-state pension component and the periodic changes in the state pension system seriously undermine this trust of citizens. Thus, the system of distributed registries that will solve this problem operates on the principles of transparency, availability for verification, reliability (security of transactions), economy, and trust on the part of customers. The article also considers the problem of formation and distribution of the accumulative pension component. The analysis of its losses and features of transfer to different pension organizations - participants of the state pension insurance system is carried out. It is proposed to solve the problems associated with these processes by implementing a system of distributed registries and smart contracts. In conclusion, the advantages and disadvantages of the distributed registry system are presented, as well as the difficulties of its implementation in the near future in the pension system of the Russian Federation are analyzed.

Pension Insurance System

The long-term sustainability and stability of the pension insurance system can be provided on the basis of a pay-as-you-go system, specifically the NDC variant, which can combine the main type of solidarity (between those who can and want to be gainfully active and those for whom the insured event has occurred) with income solidarity. When reforming the pension system in this manner the opportunity arises to begin gradual changes through fully merit system reform and therefore significantly motivating of extending the period of productivity (putting off retirement) through the upgrade of this system for persons who have reached the retirement age as specified by law.This paper aims to substantiate and explore possible changes in this direction that will not endanger anyone’s entitlements when the reforms are implemented (they have got the form of Pareto improvement), as they derive their funds by extending the time of individual productivity. To this end, the possibility of introducing an extension on top of current system of pay-as-you-go insurance, which could be entered voluntarily by persons who have already reached or are near statutory retirement age, is proposed, and modeled. The extension would operate on the principle that the paid premiums will be transformed into a lifetime annuity. The system would be significantly motivating which for most people means extending life at the fullest, associated with the option to retain beneficial social contacts and gradually relax their gainful activity without experiencing an untoward decrease in income.

The Impact

The article analyzes pension provision development in the world and the problems of its implementation under the globalization challenges. The main reasons for considering pension provision as a global problem are specified. It is noted that the negative manifestations of globalization are inherent in the Ukrainian practice of pension provision. The purpose of the paper is to study the world’s experience in reforming national pension systems under increasing global negative trends. The research was conducted using the methods of scientific knowledge: comparison and generalization – to establish the essential differences in approaches to the globalization processes studying; analysis and synthesis – to identify regularities in economic development and their determination of social consequences; historical and logical, as well as statistical methods. The article considers some countries’ experience in improving the practice of pension provision. It was established that pension reform was aimed at making the pension age most upon the individual achievements of an employee (pension insurance record, salary, deductions, other personal preferences). In most developed countries, pension funds are provided from three sources: state pension funds, corporate sector pensions and individual pensions received under a contract of personal voluntary pension accumulative insurance. Further development of the pension system in Ukraine should be provided due to the introduction of its second level. As a result of the study, it was found out that global challenges are problems that hinder the normal course of human development. They make a particular negative impact on pension provision. The search for methods to neutralize or mitigate the effects of global challenges has led many countries to introduce a three-tier pension system that involves funding from various sources.

Pension Insurance System

The purpose of this article is to analyze the experience of pension insurance systems in Europe, Asia, North and South America, Australia. The defining feature is that the existing pension insurance system in Ukraine does not perform its main task properly, since the rate of pension, for the most part, does not make it possible to maintain a decent standard of living for current pensioners. After analyzing the implementation of the pension reform in Ukraine, it should be emphasized that during the twelve-year period after the pension reform in the country there remain a number of unresolved issues regarding the pension provision of citizens, namely: aging of the population, which is one of the main factors that prompt the government to a new stage of reforming the pension system; the presence of arrears on contributions to compulsory state pension insurance; lack of proper differentiation of pension payments; shadow wages; lack of sound financial instruments for investing pension assets; unsatisfactory level of legal and financial awareness of the population in matters of pension provision; lack of interest of employers in financing non-state pension programs for employees, lack of confidence in the pension system of non-state pension funds. Methods. In most countries of the world, the problems of the pension system, same to what we have in our country, arose. But due to pension reform, they achieved successful results. Each country chose its own way of building a pension system based on its own demographic and socioeconomic features. However, despite this, the main task of any pension system is to secure from poverty and provide a pension that could guarantee a decent standard of living for a pensioner. Results. Ukraine is trying to build the pension insurance system, drawing on the best practice of the countries studied. Practical implications. It is found that the most effective and successful model of the pension system is considered to be Chilean, since the country has been using cumulative and voluntary pension systems for a long time, which are priority and allow to resolve the pension of their citizens financially, prudent and efficient investing of pension funds with lower rates of public investment income. The same model was taken as the basis in Peru, Argentina, Colombia and Kazakhstan. Value/originality. Analyzing the pension reforms implemented in Eastern Europe, it should be noted that part of the changes was due to the need to protect pensioners from poverty in the context of a sharp decrease in the rate of pensions because of the reduction of total pension contributions and the inability of the state to finance previous pension obligations. The real way to reduce the financial burden on employers and the state in the context of a solidarity pension system was to develop levels II and III of the pension system. It is noteworthy to study the foreign experience of the Eastern European country, such as Poland, which was one of the first to introduce a compulsory funded pension system.
