Pension payouts to residents reached nearly 3 billion euros during the first quarter of the year. While the exact amount expected for the subsequent wave of retirees remains unconfirmed, fund representatives are closely monitoring current activity levels. Loreta Načajienė, head of the “Luminor investment management” portal, observed that the majority of individuals wishing to withdraw accumulated funds and exit the II pension stage tended to do so early in the year.
This pattern occurred despite the fact that withdrawals are permitted until autumn 2027. According to Načajienė, the second quarter registered a withdrawal rate that was five to six times lower than the initial period. A comparable trend has been noted among residents submitting requests to withdraw 25% of their accumulated funds.
In both analyzed scenarios, the initial stage accounted for the largest volume of payouts. The data suggests a significant concentration of activity early in the year. The initial payout wave appears to have drawn out a substantial portion of the accessible funds.
Fund representatives are therefore analyzing these withdrawal patterns to better anticipate future financial flows. The observed decline in withdrawal requests following the first quarter suggests a shift in timing among retirees utilizing their accumulated pension funds. This monitoring helps provide insight into the overall liquidity and stability of the retirement savings mechanism in the coming months.
