Pension system is slightly different for each country. It differs, by a lesser or greater involvement by the State or private companies to organize a system of social insurance and retirement pension saving. The conditions under which such systems operate in different countries are different but in many thinks they are common. Therefore, when considering such a system in a country and finding its weaknesses, it can lead to a partial learning in other country. This article is trying to highlight the current problems of pension systems that arise during the operation of new, reformed pension systems - specially for pension funds. Given the scale of contribution, there are selected only some of them. Country, in which these effects were observed during recent years, is the Slovak Republic, where the pension system was reformed as early in 2004.
