Chile was one of the first countries in the Americas to set up state-sponsored social security coverage. The country’s pension system consists of multiple pillars: a non-contributory first pillar, a fully-funded second pillar, and a voluntary third pillar. In 1981, a new privatized system was introduced to carry out social security schemes. Private-sector insurance companies called pension fund managers administer these programs, and the state is in charge of the regulations. Under this new system, formal employees are mandated to contribute to the personal account, which is managed by a pension fund manager.

Key Highlights

  • The Superintendent of Pensions (SP), the Institute of Social Security (IPS), the Pension Fund Managers (AFP), and the Unemployment Funds Manager (AFC) are responsible for the functioning of the overall social security system.
  • A person’s national insurance contribution is determined based on their income.
