So why then did the Lithuanian elite create that second-tier
system? For Scandinavian banks, so that banks can earn money from our savings:
"If a person gets 600-800 euros from Sodra, 60 euros
from the second tier, 67 euros from an annuity, then it is known that that
annuity is insignificant. There could be much more flexibility here. Many
people are now unhappy that they are not given the full amount, especially in
certain cases where a person is ill and needs money now instead of distributing
it over a long period of time - Why is there such a practice? "This is
simply a political decision made for them by bureaucrats and various
stakeholders that pension system is structured in such a way that old age
it is not significant, it is a consideration only of business, profits,
customers.
It is therefore difficult to find a clear explanation as to
why this makes sense for us. This is a business area, which is carried out by
subsidiaries of three banks.
For customers, meanwhile, this is not and will not
be significant. On the other hand, there are state subsidies - about 150
million euros are subsidized annually. Periodic benefits and annuities are
given to those who have earned more, which means that those who earn less are
more important to them - of course, their contributions are also subsidized,
but they usually do not accumulate enough to receive annuities, and then receive
a lump sum of 3-4 thousand, which is not significant. So we can find more
logic here by looking at business positions and interests, but not from a
social security perspective.”
