Unemployment Fund Pro to merge with Aaria Unemployment Fund

The Financial Supervisory Authority has approved Unemployment Fund Pro to merge with Aaria Unemployment Fund on 1 January 2027.

Impact of the merger on members

The merger will not require any action from the members of the funds. There will be no changes to members’ accrued unemployment benefit entitlements or to the payment of earnings-related allowance because of the merger.

Benefits of the merger

The aim of the merger is to enhance the cost-efficiency and financial stability of the unemployment funds. The merged fund will be better equipped to meet future obligations and challenges facing unemployment funds, while continuing to develop its services and operations.

The key objectives of the Aaria Unemployment Fund in the 2020s are controlled growth and the development of services. The merger will support the achievement of these objectives. Following the merger, the Aaria Unemployment Fund will have approximately 190,000 members.
