How KWAP Operates
KWAP is Malaysia’s largest public sector pension fund for civil servants. We are the recipient of contributions originating from the Federal Government and other relevant agencies, and we are mandated to invest these contributions to obtain maximum sustainable returns through sound risk management and investment strategies.
Staying at the forefront
Kumpulan Wang Persaraan (Diperbadankan) (KWAP) or the Retirement Fund (Incorporated) was established on 1 March 2007 under the Retirement Fund Act 2007 (Act 662) replacing the repealed Pensions Trust Fund Act 1991 (Act 454).
The Pensions Trust Fund Act 1991 (Act 454) was enacted to assist the Federal Government in funding its pension liability. With the enactment of this Act, the Pensions Trust Fund was established on 1 June 1991 with a launching grant of RM500 million from the Federal Government. The Pensions Trust Fund was administered by the Pensions Trust Fund Council with the Accountant-General of Malaysia being responsible for the day-to-day administration and management of the affairs of the Pensions Trust Fund.
With the incorporation of KWAP, all the powers, functions, activities, assets and liabilities of the Pensions Trust Fund were taken over in totality by KWAP.
