Mobile operator lifecell reported that this week it recorded a significant increase in the number of people wishing to port their numbers to it from other operators. There were so many of them that it significantly exceeded the technical capabilities of the Centralized Database, which is administered by the Ukrainian State Center for Radio Frequencies.

Founder and CPO of KARAKUM Soft Viktoriya Alexandrova stated that she became a victim of fraud. Now she is a «borrower» in a number of financial institutions and microcredit organizations, although the specialist herself did not issue any loans. What happened and why does the woman have questions for «Diia» in connection with this incident?

PR Manager at Pingle Game Studio Yulia Tugolukova is 33 years old. And already a year ago, the girl started saving for her future pension. «I regret that I did not do this earlier, just as I did not deal with the issue of my savings in principle. «Over the past year, my behavior model has changed significantly: I started to take a deeper interest in this topic, I took several online courses on financial literacy,» the girl says. Julia gradually came to the realization that the current lifestyle will be difficult to maintain in old age if nothing is changed right now. «By the way, you can check your projected pension on the website of the Pension Fund of Ukraine. It is 10,000 hryvnias per month for me — certainly not the smallest, but it is still a pittance compared to my current monthly expenses,» says the specialist. Yuliya has been regularly replenishing her account in the non-state pension fund «Dynasty» for a year now. In addition, he has an OVDP and regularly buys foreign currency. «I put aside 10 to 20% of my income in total. I reinvest all the income, and it conditionally goes to retirement,» says the PR woman. Yulia plans to open a brokerage account and start investing in shares of foreign companies, since the yield there is much higher than that of instruments available in Ukraine. Such a responsible approach to securing one’s future is not surprising. After all, the Ministry of Social Policy recently announced yet another new approach to pension provision, which may begin to operate as early as 2025. dev.ua conducted a survey among IT professionals on how they take care of their secure old age. We present the results.
