Overview
- Military pensions and salaries of federal civil servants rose 7.6% from October 1 under a government order tied to increases in active-service pay.
- The adjustment applies to payments financed from the federal budget and excludes regional and municipal employees, with pensions for MoD, Investigative Committee, Prosecutor’s Office, FSB, FSIN and MVD retirees covered.
- A draft Social Fund budget projects one-time pension-savings payouts in 2026 to about 706,000 people, averaging roughly 68,100 rubles, with 48.1 billion rubles earmarked.
- Planned parameters shift over the forecast period, with average payouts rising in 2027 and slightly easing in 2028 as the number of recipients declines.
- The cabinet on Friday will consider funding for regional pension supplements and monthly payments to caregivers for children with disabilities and people with severe disability.
