What are Pension & Investment Plans?
Pension plans are retirement savings plans that employers can offer to their employees as a benefit. These plans help employees save for retirement by making regular contributions to the plan. Investment plans, on the other hand, are accounts that allow employees to invest their money in different investment vehicles such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and more.

Types of Pension and Investment Plans
There are several types of pension plans and investment options that employers can offer to their employees.
Employer-Sponsored Plans
Many employers in Egypt offer pension plans as part of their employee benefits package. These plans can be either defined benefit plans or defined contribution plans.
Individual Retirement Accounts
IRAs are retirement savings accounts that individuals can open and contribute to on their own. There are two types of IRAs available in Egypt: Traditional and Roth.
Mutual Funds
Mutual funds are investment vehicles that pool money from different investors to invest in a diversified portfolio of stocks, bonds, and other securities.
National Investment Scheme
The National Investment Scheme is a government-backed savings program that allows employees to contribute a portion of their salary to a tax-advantaged investment account. The funds can be invested in a variety of financial instruments, such as mutual funds, stocks, and bonds.
Fixed Deposits
Fixed deposits are a type of savings account where employees deposit a sum of money for a fixed period of time, ranging from a few months to a few years. Employees earn interest on their deposit, which is usually higher than the interest rates offered on regular savings accounts.
Endowment Plans
Endowment plans are life insurance policies that combine insurance coverage with savings and investment features. These plans are designed to provide financial protection to the policyholder and their family while also building up savings for the future.

There is no fixed amount that employers must contribute to pension and investment plans in Egypt. However, employers must contribute a minimum of 2.5% of employees’ salaries to the government-run pension scheme. The amount of employer contributions to other pension and investment plans can vary depending on the plan’s design and the employer’s budget.
