We work to give members and pensioners peace of mind about their financial security after retirement and during situations of need by ensuring that all funds in our safekeeping are responsibly invested and accounted for and that benefits are paid out efficiently, accurately and on time. Currently the GEPF has more than 320 participating employers, including all national and provincial government departments and the South African National Defence Force and Intelligence Community.
