Bajomo highlighted that individuals who start saving for retirement early are more likely to accumulate a substantial amount in their retirement savings accounts (RSA) over time, providing a solid basis for their retirement. However, individuals who delay retirement planning can still achieve financial security with careful preparation and voluntary contributions.
As an organization, we have established this pre-retirement workshop to support the goals of pension contributors who are working hard to retire safely,”
