Social Security Fund Targets Renewable Energy Sector for Investments
The Social Security Fund (SSF) aims to direct investments towards hydropower and renewable energy initiatives. This strategic focus is part of a broader effort to stimulate economic growth and ensure sustainable energy development.

The Social Security Fund (SSF) is prioritizing investments in renewable energy, specifically in hydropower and electricity transmission sectors. Currently, two of four proposals are under discussion, reflecting a selective investment approach.
The SSF manages contributions from 2,958,429 contributors across 23,476 employers, and has disbursed claims totaling Rs. 20.45 billion. Its investment policy mandates that projects must exceed 20 megawatts and require a minimum of 30 percent equity, excluding those operated by private entities. This strategy aims to align investments with sustainable development goals, potentially enhancing economic growth in the energy sector.
