PFRDA Lets Banks Manage NPS Funds for Better Retirement

The PFRDA has announced that scheduled commercial banks can now manage their own pension funds for the National Pension System. This change, effective from April 2026, aims to boost competition and improve retirement security. Only financially sound banks can participate, and new trustees will join the NPS Trust board to help oversee these changes.
