We create current and future wellbeing by providing financial protection for people in Mexico  

About our business

At SURA Asset Management we believe that the individually funded pension system is an ideal means for building a better future. Our objective, as a fund management organization, is to ensure the proper management of our savers’ resources so as to be able to provide them with a stable pension over time. As important players in the Latin American pension industry, our commitment is to align the handling of the resources entrusted to us with people’s different savings habits so as to be able to satisfy their expectations. We also provide our knowledge and expertise so as to help overcome the challenges that our pension systems face today, this through concrete proposals

Pension Vision

Ensuring that people are entitled to decent pensions must be one of the priorities of our social protection policies. It is not a matter of organizing a confrontation between the public and private sectors, but of complementing and contributing what each player has to offer so as to arrive at the best possible -sustainable- system.
For this reason, every day we are striving to improve the way we approach our clients and offer them our advice, using technological tools to deliver a service tailored to their needs. By delivering a value-added offering for each stage of our clients' lives, we are also providing them greater support and assistance.

We make our pension systems more sustainable when:

  • We help to strengthen these and provide our retirees with better living conditions, this through the part we play in public dynamics and by improving our internal and external processes.
  • We empower people by providing them with financial and pension education thereby increasing awareness of the importance of building a better future.
  • We promote dialog and discourse between the different actors so as to collectively build a better future.

We are developing a value-added offering for our retirees.

We are stressing the importance of individual savings systems. The individually funded system has proven to be a possible option for our countries, in terms of financial sustainability, this in addition to the benefits it provides to the economic development and the growth of our countries.

We are helping to improve the pension system. We make a positive impact on public discourse to the extent that we contribute the knowledge and experience we have amassed in this industry on a regional level, so that our pension systems can better respond to the expectations and needs of our citizens.

We believe in working together and in an articulated manner. Having better pension systems is only possible when all the actors involved are able to work together (the public and private sectors, employers and fund members) understanding their respective roles and the way in which each one adds value. The private sector has proven to be the best possible manager of the resources of our fund members, both in terms of the knowledge gained over the years as well as its technological and market management capabilities.

This is what it does in its role as a pension fund management firm, that is to say helping people to build up their capital which in turn allows them to retire well and enjoy a dignified old age. It also does so by providing various savings and investment alternatives to its clients, which are based precisely on believing in the virtuous circle that these alternatives generate: saving drives a country’s development, which in turn provides financial protection and then gives people freedom to make their own decisions. For this reason, SURA Asset Management is committed to the democratization of savings and investment products, an objective that challenges us to expand the alternatives we offer, along with access to such, so as to ensure specialized assistance and support for our clients.

Ruta de la Pensión

The Pension Route

The Pension Route is an initiative for adults 50 years of age and older who began working before 1997. The Pension Route offers this segment of the population advice and a step-by-step guide to help them prepare, so that when they reach the age of 60, they can apply for their pension with the Mexican Social Security Institute (IMSS) without encountering any setbacks. Given the fact that workers have little or no knowledge regarding the pension application process, with its Pension Route program, Afore SURA seeks to create a culture of prevention and awareness among both its clients and the general population regarding the processing of their pensions

Youth Employability

Knowing that in a country like Peru we must continue to promote financial education and savings initiatives, we implemented a series of programs focused on providing skills to drive formal employment, financial education, planning and savings. With these, we wish to help people develop skills for their professional growth and for making informed and timely decisions. Our main initiatives include the Employability Program for Young People, in alliance with the Municipality of Lima, which seeks to help young people between the ages of 15 and 29 to enter the formal job market through different training modules; and the employability program for our subscribers has been created with the aim of helping them to make the right decisions.

On the other hand, our corporate volunteer programs are also aimed at promoting financial education amongst the general population. In 2020, we partnered with two institutions that allow our volunteer employees to teach financial education. The first partnership was with the NGO PROA, which allowed our volunteers to connect up with heads of households on a weekly basis to share their knowledge and guide them in a responsible and organized manner as to how to use their money to strengthen their family’s economy. Secondly, together with NESsT, a firm specializing in the incubation of social enterprises and impact funds, we trained 13 employees to mentor social enterprises and advise them on business management issues for 4 months..

Informative talks for clients who are claiming or are about to claim their pensions or benefits. This initiative is routinely carried out every Friday, and was designed to be the first advisory service provided to clients and takes the requirements, complaints and other factors reported in these private chats and channels these to the back-office areas so that they may be duly dealt with. Clients are also encouraged to use Crecer's online services in order to reduce the number of visits to branch offices and in this way limit the risk of contagion.

Every month, for 2 weeks, a virtual tour or telephone contact is made with different radio and television stations to discuss how to apply for pensions or benefits with Crecer.
