SSS net profit rises 58.4% in 2025
THE SOCIAL Security System (SSS) said net profit rose 58.4% to P142.97 billion last year, with its reserve fund exceeding P1-trillion mark.
“This record performance and over P1-trillion reserve fund level send a clear message to SSS members: your pensions are secure; your benefits sustained,” Finance Secretary and Social Security Commission (SSC) Chair Frederick D. Go said in a statement on Sunday.
“Guided by President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr.’s directive to enhance benefits and strengthen governance, we are building a social security system that is financially resilient and more responsive to the needs of every Filipino,” he added.
SSS President and Chief Executive Officer Robert Joseph M. De Claro said the state pension fund’s financial performance was driven by sustained fiscal discipline, strengthened fund governance, and long-term reforms designed to safeguard member contributions and preserve the fund’s actuarial soundness.
“Surpassing the P1-trillion mark in our Reserve Fund is a milestone and a strong affirmation of our duty to every worker and pensioner who relies on SSS. This performance reflects prudent stewardship of member contributions, strengthened governance, and our continuing commitment to deliver secure and sustainable benefits — today and for generations to come,” he said.
In 2025, the SSS disbursed P304.94 billion in pensions and benefits to 5.66 million members.
Meanwhile, loan releases hit P61.11 billion at the end of 2025.
The SSS noted that the pension loan program extended benefits to an additional 1.2 million members last year.
Total assets grew 22.1% to P1.26 trillion, it said. — Aaron Michael C. Sy
