Bank, insurer and global payment org teaching Poles to save

Mastercard, VeloBank, and Prudential Polska have launched a joint campaign encouraging Poles to save for retirement amid growing concerns about pension adequacy. Forecasts show that today’s workers may receive only about 30% of their final salary from the state system.

Demographic trends are worsening the outlook, with the worker-to-retiree ratio expected to fall to 1.5:1 by 2050. Research indicates a typical monthly pension gap of around PLN 2,000, yet only 20% of Poles save regularly.

The “Wygodnie na Emeryturze” campaign combines financial education with incentives, including a PLN 500 bonus for eligible customers. Partners aim to make long-term saving a habit and highlight the need for individual responsibility in securing future income.
