GIPF Identifies 155 Members with Unclaimed Benefits, Enhances Outreach Efforts

The Government Institutions Pension Fund has found 155 members with unclaimed benefits, often due to resignation or incomplete documentation. The exact value of these benefits is unclear because of the fund’s pooling system. GIPF is addressing the issue through regional outreach and media campaigns, and is transferring unclaimed benefits to the Guardian’s Fund. Challenges include outdated contact details and incomplete documentation. Members are advised to contact GIPF directly, as no fees are required for their services. The Ministry of Justice is also working on reforms for the Guardian Fund, valued at over N$132.76 million.
