Business unusual.

The Sygnia Umbrella Retirement Fund (SURF) is South Africa’s most innovative and cost-effective retirement savings solution. It offers leading benefit design, transparent pricing and sophisticated, technology-driven administration, all at the most competitive fees in South Africa.

A first in South Africa.

We were the first umbrella fund in the country to offer both in-fund preservation and in-fund annuitisation – ahead of the default regulations being legislated. Now members can seamlessly retain their membership in SURF on resignation or retirement and continue to benefit from institutional rather than retail investment fees. The result? More money with which to enjoy retirement.

Members

Our online SURF portals empower employees to save for retirement and understand the difference between a pension fund, provident fund and retirement annuity fund.
