Samsung Securities Hosts Untact Pension Seminar
Pension Seminar to be Held via YouTube Live Broadcast from 7 PM on the 26th
Scheduled Biweekly Sessions Until Early October
[Asia Economy Reporter Song Hwajeong] Samsung Securities announced on the 26th that it will start a YouTube seminar series related to pensions. This pension-related YouTube seminar will be held biweekly for a total of 4 sessions until early October.
Samsung Securities explained that the seminar was prepared to meet the demand of investors who want to utilize pension accounts for investment amid the recent investment boom in the financial market.
According to Samsung Securities, the number of pension accounts opened until the end of July this year reached 25,000, nearly 1.5 times the number of pension accounts opened throughout last year.
Pension accounts offer benefits such as tax deductions and tax deferrals, while allowing investors to pursue higher returns compared to market interest rates by utilizing Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs), enabling the expectation of compound interest effects.
Samsung Securities’ YouTube seminar will be held biweekly until early October. Ahead of the year-end tax deduction deadline, it aims to proactively provide investors with pension-related information so they can establish their management plans.
The first session is titled "Starting an Individual Retirement Pension (IRP)" and will comprehensively cover the concept and advantages of IRP, as well as how to open an IRP through Samsung Securities’ mobile app (mPOP). It will be held on Wednesday the 26th from 7 PM and last about 30 minutes, including a Q&A session.
Since it will be broadcast live, viewers can leave questions in the comments while watching the video and hear expert answers at the end of the broadcast.
The YouTube live broadcast can be accessed by becoming friends with Samsung Asset Management’s KakaoTalk channel and clicking the link. Access is available from 6:50 PM.

Meanwhile, Samsung Securities opened a system in early August that allows trading of domestically listed REITs through IRP accounts. Recently, the dividend yields of domestic listed REITs have reached an average of 4-6%, making them an attractive alternative for investors seeking both profitability amid the continued low-interest-rate environment and stability due to the nature of pension assets.
