OFFICERS ORGANISATIONS'
ON MEETING HELD ON 23rd SEPT'22. WITH IBA
DISCUSSIONS ON RESIDUAL ISSUES WITH IBA.
"PENSION UPDATION: IBA expressed that they are open to examine the payment of Ex-gratia
to pre 1986 retirees, as the same is outside the purview of Pension Regulations 1995. IBA
indicated that there is a need for harmonisation of DA prior to 2002 and couple of options need
to be examined on the basis of data to be collected/ provided by the Banks. However, we have
reiterated that the evaluation of cost for updation should be carried out as that of the one done
in 2010 to assess the position of the funds as our goal was updation of pension. Simultaneously,
we demanded that all banks should have the health of the pension funds examined and make
provisions, wherever necessary to ensure that the funds were sustainable in the long run"
