Private investment is key to saving the Invalidity, Old Age, and Death Program (IVM) of the Social Security Fund (CSS) in Panama. This is highlighted by experts who indicate that it is essential to convey confidence to citizens so they see investment as a good business opportunity and do not resort to informality, which could condemn the CSS to an uncertain future.
According to estimates, the number of retirees in Panama is expected to increase in the coming years, which will put greater pressure on the social security system. In this context, private investment becomes crucial to ensure the sustainability of the IVM program and avoid a financial collapse in the future.
Specialists emphasize the importance of promoting a favorable environment for investment that stimulates economic growth and generates employment, which in turn will contribute to strengthening the social security system. They also highlight the need to implement reforms that improve the efficiency and transparency in the management of IVM program resources.
In the words of an expert in the field: "We must work to build trust in investment as a profitable and sustainable long-term option; otherwise, we will continue to feed informality and jeopardize the future of the CSS."
