At the annual general meeting, Yvonne Buliga, Head of Portfolio Management and Operations, disclosed that the Petra Opportunity Pension Scheme achieved a return of 15.63%, surpassing inflation rates of around 5.4%. The Petra Advantage Pension Scheme recorded 15.27% returns, and the Savings Booster Scheme generated 11.73%. These real returns ensure that members' funds are not only growing but also safeguarding against inflation's impact.\n\nThe Petra Advantage Pension Scheme's growth to nearly GH¢4 billion highlights its substantial value, while the Petra Opportunity Pension Scheme expanded to GH¢2.64 billion. Transparency is a cornerstone of management, with members able to track daily investment returns and asset allocation through Petra's online portal.\n\nPetra's Head of Retail Business, Seth Koomson, emphasized the importance of individual responsibility in retirement planning. He urged workers not to solely depend on mandatory pension contributions, as a comfortable retirement requires proactive financial decisions throughout one's working years. Petra is offering additional investment opportunities, such as homeownership options, and providing free financial consultations to help members identify gaps in their financial plans. Over the past two years, the company has assisted nearly 80 scheme members in securing homes.\n\nPetra remains committed to strong investment returns and transparent fund management to protect contributors' retirement savings. The company also encourages workers to explore additional investments to build financial security and attain a more comfortable retirement.",
