​​Monthly payment benefits (annuity)

Members will receive a monthly payment upon attaining the age of 60 years for a period of 20 years. 

The minimum payable amount is B$150.00 per month if the member has fulfilled the requirement of contributing 7% per month continuously for a period of 35 years (420 months).  

For a member who has attained the age of 60 years old and fulfilled all the requirements of contributing 7% for 420 months but does not have an adequate savings to enable the payment of the minimum amount of B$150.00, His Majesty's Government will top-up this shortfall so as to ensure that the withdrawal of the minimum amount of B$150.00 per month can be made.

Survivorship benefit

Survivorship benefit is a monthly payment made to the dependent (widow and children under 21 years old) of a member at an amount of B$400.00 per month if a member dies before attaining the age of 60 years old.  

Eligibility

A member has made a continuous contribution until the month immediately preceding the month in which he died. The period of payment is 15 years with effect from the date the member died.

Where a widow dies or re-marries, the balance of the survivorship benefit shall be paid to her children who are below the age of 21 years old.
