Good Governance and Institutional Stability
In a public address, Prime Minister Kurti emphasized that the continuous upward performance of public assets vindicates his administration’s policy of insulation from political meddling, allowing financial experts to pilot the fund independently.
“These figures are excellent news for hundreds of thousands of contributors whose savings are being preserved and invested for their post-retirement financial security. Such results prove the importance of good governance, professionalism, integrity, and institutional responsibility. Public institutions thrive when responsibilities are entrusted to professionals, and the citizens’ interest is placed above all else.” — Albin Kurti, Prime Minister of Kosovo
While congratulating the Board of Directors, management, and executive staff of the Trust for their operational success, Kurti reaffirmed that the government will continue to respect the financial independence of the institution. Moving forward, the administration intends to focus exclusively on upgrading the overarching legal and regulatory framework to maximize long-term transparency and safeguard the citizens’ capital against volatile global market shocks.
