Higher member contributions and disciplined benefit payments have strengthened the Fund's cashflows and provided a solid base for investment growth. Over the last several years, NSIF has translated this strong performance into higher member value, crediting accounts with double-digit interest rates consistently.
🏆 Historic Achievement: NSIF declared a record 15% interest rate for members for the 2024/2025 financial year, marking the highest return in the Fund's history and representing significant growth from previous years.
NSIF's investment portfolio has expanded sharply in recent years, driven by a deliberate shift to income-generating assets and favourable market conditions. Total investments have grown from approximately SSP 308 billion in December 2022 to over SSP 558 billion by June 2025, representing a growth of over 80% in just three years.
Over the same period, net investment income more than doubled to about SSP 105.3 billion in 2024/25, implying an estimated 22 percent return on investments, up from roughly 12 percent the previous year.
🎯 Future Outlook: Fund assets are on track to reach approximately SSP 1 trillion by the 2028/2029 period, supported by higher contributions and strong investment performance.
