The importance of preserving the National Fund of the Bars of France:-<\/span><\/h2>\n
\r\n\r\nIn January 2020 French lawyers mobilized against the pension reform project.\u00a0It should be noted that the current pension scheme for the profession of lawyer is not a special scheme, but an autonomous one.<\/h1>\r\n
It should be understood that this type of plan, intended to disappear, is managed by independent funds.\u00a0Lawyers do not benefit from derogatory conditions concerning the duration of contributions but they have their own pension fund which they finance themselves.\u00a0Their pension fund is in surplus and already transfers 80 million euros each year to the general scheme.<\/h2>\r\n
If this independent scheme disappeared, lawyers would see their pension contributions increase, especially for lawyers who earn less than 40,000 euros per year.\u00a0On the other hand, pensions would decrease.\u00a0It is easy to understand that the profession has mobilized throughout France to defend not a privilege but a stable system that allows us to exercise our profession serenely.<\/h3>\r\n
Negotiations with the government were stormy and the executive gave in by accepting the maintenance of the National Fund for French Bars.<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/div>","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1411","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\n
