Over one million Romanians accessed pilonul2.ro in 2026 to check their private pension contributions. The site allows users to verify their pension fund and accumulated savings. Pilonul 2, established in 2008, directs part of social insurance contributions to private pension accounts. Currently, 4.75% of gross monthly income is allocated to this system, which incurs no additional costs for participants. The average annual return for these funds is 8.5%, significantly outpacing inflation. Participants can only withdraw funds under specific legal conditions, such as retirement or disability. A virtual assistant named 'Domnul Pensionescu' has been introduced to help users navigate their pension inquiries.
