In addition, ICBC managed 17.87 million personal pension accounts, the first to manage over 10 million personal accounts of enterprise annuity and maintaining its first position in the market for 13 consecutive years.

According to an official with ICBC, following the change of age structure and the improvement of the old-age security system in China, the demand of customers for diversified pension services has been growing.

Moreover, ICBC has taken the lead in the industry to realize the automatic direct connection with the data interface of partners, and initiated the client self-service mode of “ICBC e Pension” to promote the transformation and upgrading of the pension service mode.

In response to the actual conditions of micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) such as small fund size, lack of professionals and the high cost of independently developing an enterprise annuity plan, ICBC has customized the “Ruyi Pension Management” Collective Enterprise Annuity Plans for them. On the one hand, the management expenses are reduced actively by standardizing operation process, automating business process and localizing customer services; on the other, the investment performance is effectively improved on the basis of controlling the investment risk through collective management at the capital back-end by outstanding investment managers, hence realizing long-term leading performance in the market and benefiting MSMEs. So far, more than 7,000 MSME customers have received the quality and efficient ICBC pension manager services.
