Established in 1949 by the United Nations General Assembly, UNJSPF provides retirement, death, disability and related benefits for staff of the United Nations and other member organizations. The UN pension plan is a defined benefit plan which is not dependent on the investment return or longevity. The past actuarial valuations have confirmed the Fund is fully funded.

As a signatory to the United Nations’ Principles of Responsible Investing or PRI, the Office of Investment Management (OIM) incorporates environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations throughout the investment decision-making process.

Enrolling in the Digital Certificate of Entitlement (Digital CE) has never been so easy. With the new version, you only need to let the Fund know about your availability, and the Fund will call you within 5 business days to finalize the process.

The Fund has just released 20 videos covering almost every aspect of pensions for participants, retirees/beneficiaries, and survivors. The series, available in English, French and Spanish, offers a new way to learn about your pension in an entertaining, clear and concise manner – most of the videos are less than 3 minutes.

The new set of UNJSPF Pension eLearning Modules is intended to cater to all participants, retirees, and beneficiaries of the Fund, providing them with essential information on their UNJSPF pension plan along with pension rights, options and obligations and practical guidance.
