What happens to us when we grow old and cannot work, or be productive at all. Do we just sit jobless and have no source of income till we die. This is where pension comes into play.
A pension is a sum of money that has been deducted from one salary during his employment years and its accumulated and stored till one’s retirement from work, that's when he gets the payment either in full or periodically.
This pension is maintained by a pension fund or scheme in many countries. But this days, the economy of most countries is struggling and due to many issues, the rate of people retiring are increasing. So as many wait to be paid swiftly with their accrued money, the country may not be ready or able to pay them as quickly as it's supposed to be.
But with the evolution of technology and the administration of blockchain technology into the pension scheme, the system will improve greatly. We can humbly say that Akropolis will be the first decentralised system for the pension funds.
