Ukrainian pensioners will receive two payment increases in 2025. The first increase will occur in March, and the second one — in July of that year. The March indexation will be at the level of 12-13%, and the July increase will be aimed at overcoming historical injustice in pension payments. The amount of the July increase will depend on the paid unified social tax and work experience. The greatest increase will be received by pensioners of the 2000-2010 pension assignments, for them the increase coefficient may reach 60%. The Minister of Social Policy Oksana Zholnovych emphasized that no one’s pensions will be reduced, and pensioners receiving higher payments will keep them at the current level. In addition, it is planned to introduce accumulative pension funds, which will allow citizens to control their savings through a smartphone.
