On the last day of summer officials “pleased” the most vulnerable segments of the population. According to the vice-premier Olga Golodets, firstly, the accumulative part of pensions will be re-frozen. Second, indexing scholarship this year will not be. The first news may not be a sensation, we have already warned officials of various calibers. But the second word slipped a hefty and very nasty “pig” students. And, on the eve of the new academic year. Recall that in October 2015 the former Education Minister Dmitry Livanov promised that student scholarships will be indexed by 4% in 2016. Moreover, according to the draft budget.

For the first time charges of Russians working in the funded part of pension focused on current payments to pensioners in 2014. Then, the cumulative part of the pension freeze was extended to 2015 and 2016.
In order to understand, every employer is required to pay on a monthly basis 22% of the wage bill in the budget of the Pension Fund. 16% goes to the insurance part, that is, on current retirees, and 6% – goes to the funded part, in other words, future retirees. Recall that the whole system is effective for those born after 1965.
Why come up with the funded part? For two reasons. The first is to enable future pensioners to save money in order to be worthy of the funds for retirement. To this end, it created a system of non-state accumulation fund, which would help not only to maintain the accumulation, but also increase them.
Those who do not want to give their money to the NPF, became engaged VEB.
the second reason for the creation of the funded part – the creation of States tool “long and cheap money” that the economy has been able to take in case of no grip investment
Unfortunately, this mechanism is fully and not earned.. When in 2014 began the next crisis turns out that the Pension Fund does not have enough money. Moreover, the conversations that funded part of pensions in the meantime canceled altogether.
Background to this already. Since 2014 the accumulative part of pensions in Russia, as they say, is “frozen.” Insurance employer contributions go entirely to the distribution part of the pension system of the state. This allowed the government to save some budget expenditures for transfers to the pension fund.
«Thaw» accumulative part of pensions promised time and again, but it seems that the winter in the domestic “pension front” of the country continues. As announced on August 31, Vice Premier Olga Golodets, the accumulative part of pensions will be frozen again, because the transfer to the Pension Fund is not laid in the future draft budget. “It limits the limits reported, they do not transfer to the Pension Fund,” – said Golodets. Asked whether the freeze accumulative part of pensions will remain, she said: “Yes.»
However, in fact it was known in advance. Minister of Labor and Social Protection Maxim Topilin even in mid-July, said that the current Ministry of Finance on the budget estimates 2017-2019 years, is not intended to transfer to the Pension Fund.
Maybe not all ordinary working people the Russians understand the importance of this decision . Funded part of pensions – this means that deferred “for later”, which will be available, as they say, after a well-deserved vacation
At first glance, in principle, is for the government freeze the accumulative part of pensions are not. It is a tragedy. But let’s count. Funded part of each year up to 400 billion. Rubles. For three years – about 1.2 trillion. Dividing by each employee who is going to retire in the near future, it’s about – 2-3 thousand per month. The average pension in the country, according to Rosstat, is now little more than 12 thousand rubles. Approximately in 2021, when the time comes to go on a holiday for women born in 1965 (only the retirement savings system in force since this year), the average pension, according to experts, will increase to a maximum of 15 thousand. But if you’re lucky. There are also elderly people who now receive on 6-7 thousand. Rubles. The increase in the 2-3 thousand a month they would have been a good tool
However, kill not only the roots, but also tops -. It is common practice in our country. Achieving pensioners, the state has given a negative discharge young people who do not think about retirement.
According to Olga Golodets, scholarships index will not be this year. “This issue is not addressed, we go to the limits of our budget and the budget process”, – said Deputy Prime Minister
But this, many had hoped.. In October 2015, former Minister of Education and Science Dmitry Livanov reported that according to the draft budget student scholarships will be indexed in 2016 by 4%.
together to statistics, the minimum state academic scholarship in Russia is about 1 , 3 thousand, the maximum – 6 thousand students for good scholarship students provided increased -. 5-7 thousand for students in graduate – 11-14 thousand Obviously, every percent counts
to live on.. that kind of money, considering that many have to pay for accommodation in a hostel, it is hardly possible. Normal dress and eat – even more so. Suppose, 4% – a little. Yes, and study, and work in the current difficult economic conditions should temper, not to drown. But who then Russia will bring – the future professionals or future marginal
Earlier this year, the World Bank has forecast – because of the deteriorating economic situation, poverty level in Russia will soon exceed 15%, while unemployment reached historic highs. Official statistics have confirmed all the fears – to survive in Russia was really much more complicated
What, then, makes the state -. Pensioners cut off rations and the students hope the country cut back last pennies
