Early retirements in the state reach higher value of … – publico

                 


                         
                     

                 

 
                         

Last year, the General Pension Fund gave the green light to 23,300 new pensions requested by civil servants (14.6% more than in 2013), most of which relates to early retirement. The CGA dispatched 12,911 requests for anticipation, the highest value of the last decade and representing 55.4% of all new reforms. The data in the report and accounts of the CGA sent on Tuesday to the unions, who were summoned to a meeting of the Advisory Board scheduled for July 13.


                     


                         The record number of early retirements, justifies the CGA, relates mainly to requests received at the end of 2012, following the exceptional influx of early retirement requests originated by prior knowledge of the worsening retirement conditions from 2013 “and ensuring that the requests would benefit from the old rules.

On average, civil servants anticipated that the reform had a penalty of 12.3%. The cut was, however, lower than that applied in 2013 (14.6%). This decrease has to do with the fact that most of these pensions are the result of applications lodged in 2012 and still benefited from less penalizing rules than those currently in force.

At the same time as early retirement reached the highest value of the decade, normal reforms (so-called voluntary) recorded the lowest number and has not exceeded 3,847. This was the result “of the successive increases in the normal retirement age access ode old age pension, which rose from 62.5 years in 2010 to 66 in 2014,” notes the Executive Board of the CGA, Nuno Fernandes Thomaz chaired by.

To have a comparison, the 19,530 attributed reforms in 2005, 8.1% were prepaid and 53.9% were voluntary. In 2014, these percentages are reversed, and total new assigned pensions, 55.4% were anticipating and 16.5% to voluntary reforms.

Looking for the source area of ​​the employees who have retired in 2014, it is concluded that most worked in Central Administration, although there has been a reduction in the number of people from these organisms. The largest increases occurred in the security forces, where the number of pensioners had increased by 82.5% and in municipalities with over 80% of retirees than in the previous year.

The total number of retirees and pensioners of the CGA has been increasing at an average rate of 2.7% in recent years, being 482,706 at the end of last year. The number of subscribers has been declining at a rate of 4.6%. These dynamics are a result of the fact that since January 2006, CGA is a closed system (which does not accept new subscribers) and therefore prone to be deficient.

Reimbursement State increases 47.9 million

In 2014, the CGA has spent 9,492 million euros in pensions and other allowances, an increase of 729 million compared to the budget. This deviation is justified in the report, was due to lead the new Constitutional Court Solidarity Extraordinary Contribution (which was more severe) and the judgment that eliminated the cuts in compensation of employees with effect for a few months, which led to an increase in spending on pensions that are indexed to wages, as well as the recalculation of survivors’ pensions.

The receipts amounted to 4384 million euros, leaving 526 million higher than budgeted, because increased contributions by abolishing the wage cuts, among other measures.

The combination of these factors caused the state reimbursement to ensure the CGA’s financial balance has been higher than expected at 47, 9 million euros, amounting to 3870 million euros.

On average, CGA took eight months to send requests and to give green light to the award of pensions, below the target that was set and that He pointed to a period of six months answer. This did not surprise the institution’s leaders who recognize that the CGA activity “was strongly influenced by the change of the pension scheme.” And take for example the changes in the legal age for access to pensions and calculation formula. “Successive changes to the CGA pension scheme, which is currently fairly complex, permanently require a great adaptability of the CGA staff (…), the instructional process area one of the most affected.”

At least we had a more efficient and effective control over the number of ignitions “, he said.

The commander of the ANPC said that “the framework for the Bravo stage corresponded very well” and was excellent. “Never did so much (in training) in a period between one device and another. All this will contribute to the means we want to achieve this year,” he said, pointing out that there is the variable weather conditions, which are essential to help reach good results.

A pair of radio Beats 1, Apple also announced the reformulation of the remaining radio stations -. Related to iTunes Radio service, something like Pandora, a popular service in the US

 
 

Connect The third module promises to be one of the strengths of the new service proposed by the owner of the iPhone, offering fans the chance to interact with their favorite artists. A kind of social network but entirely dedicated to musicians and what do these beyond the editing discs. Through the “Connect” you can comment, do “like” and share the material published by a particular artist. This platform can be found demo versions unreleased officially, acoustic versions of past hits or a video recorded in the studio, made by the artist himself (somewhat in the manner of what you can do with the Soundcloud). Musicians can leave phrases, photographs and what else they want, as if to make use of a wall in the manner of Facebook.


 
 

Details The first working day of the Music Apple is expected to reach 100 countries, including Portugal, and will be available in all Apple devices, including iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch (and Apple Watch). Through iTunes, you can also access the service on computers, Mac and PC. Promised for the autumn are versions for the Android operating system and Apple TV.

In the first quarter using the Apple Music is free but Apple is committed to pay royalties on such use at no cost to the consumer (ie after the dispute led last week by Taylor Swift) After that, you can opt for two types of subscription: individual, which should be around 9.99 euros, and the family, allowing access to a maximum of six people and has an estimated value of 14.99 euros (price to be confirmed). According to the website of Apple, even unsigned you can listen to the radio Beats 1 and see what artists are published in the “Connect”.

New Bank. Proposals far from the 4.9 billion – iOnline

New Bank. Proposals far from the 4.9 billion

                     
                 
                     

Those interested in the institution must now deliver the final proposals for the new Bank. Banco de Portugal wanted to deal closed in summer.


 
                 

The five interested in buying the New Bank (NB) deliver today, to 17.00, the final proposals to the Bank of Portugal (BoP). The market believes that none of the proposed approaches, even out of the € 4.9 billion that were required to capitalize the bank, but that may be on the table other issues that value offers such as capital increases.

 
 

Operations required for NB can stay abreast of the sector in Portugal, with regard to capital ratios. According to the opening balance of the institution, the Core Tier I ratio of NB was 9.5%, down from 10% recorded by the other institutions.


 
 

In the run on the bank led by Eduardo Stock da Cunha, who was with the healthy assets of BES are Spain’s Santander, the Anbang and Fosun Chinese and Americans Cerberus and Apollo. The Bank of Portugal has not made any statements, telling just how many stakeholders are still in the race at the end of each procedure.


 
 

For the Chinese Fosun, already owners of Fidelity – the insurer belonging to the Caixa Geral de Depósitos – the purchase of the New Bank would mean the entry into the banking sector in Portugal. It is recalled that part of EDP and REN already belong also to the Chinese Three Gorges and the State Grid, respectively. Getting a bank would be an asset even for business expansion of Chinese investors in the country.


 
 

Sources close to the process say the Anbang will have the highest bid in terms of value, but the Fosun will offer other counterparts. In the race are still the Apollo investment fund – who had already tried to buy Fidelity – and Cerberus. And the Spanish Santander, which were more than one time as data out of the race, but have a unique advantage: they are the only European institution interested in NB

.
 
 

Remember that the final word on the buyer will be given by the European Central Bank, since the NB was born the measure of resolution applied to BES. After delivered proposals, the BOP can still negotiate with several competitors before the final decision. Carlos Costa has said it wanted the sale process closed during the summer, although the resolution mechanism provide that the bridge bank to be sold within two years after its creation.


 
 

If it is confirmed that the winning bid does not reach the 4.9 billion euros, will be the resolution fund – that is, the other national system banks – to bear the losses. The Economic recently reported that this support, however, would have little impact on the banks of results, as could be done by an extended deadline.


 
 

It is recalled that at the time of resolution, NB received money as follows: 3.9 billion were guaranteed by a state loan 700 million for a loan from the bank and 300 million settlement fund’s capital ( coming from contributions from normal financial institutions since 2012).

The Cult of Mac website cited the example of Dr. Dre, who must win a program with the best music from hip hop and R & B. In addition, other big names like Jaden Smith and Elton John must also have a guaranteed space on schedule.

In addition, the Beats 1 should bring a substantial list of respondents. As was said during the WWDC, the Apple Music idea is to strengthen the relationship between artists and fans. Thus, the presence of Eminem, Drake, Pharrell Williams and other famous is guaranteed in the new Radio Apple.

Launch

The president of the group of judges, Candida Martin, read a resolution that aimed to realize that at this moment two shots were fired, taking into account that said several witnesses and assistants during the presentation of evidence and traces found on site.

According to the judge, Manuel Baltazar “acted with intent to cause death” either the daughter or the ex-mother in law.

“These are achievements,” he said, adding that it is not anything new and this is a matter that is being debated throughout the trial.

Nevertheless, the lawyer Manuel Baltazar, Manuel Rodrigues, said not do without the term to exercise the right of defense and therefore the reading of the judgment was postponed to July 10.

Manuel Baltazar is charged with four degree murder (two of whom attempted the way) occurred in Valongo of Olive in April 2014 a prohibited weapon detention crime and other violations of prohibitions or taboos .

On leaving the courtroom, Manuel Rodrigues admitted that with or without this amendment to the indictment, “Palito” does not deliver the maximum sentence of 25 years in prison because he confessed two murders.

However, he remained convinced that he did not kill his ex-wife nor his daughter and therefore is concerned a “matter of honor”.



“For Manuel, this issue is important. It is a matter of honor, conscience, humanity, values ​​that make us people, “he justified.

The lawyer considered that the need for this decision is linked to” structural deficiencies notorious and evident “in the indictment, for which has drawn attention from the start of the process.

“If the facts resulting from the investigation and trial were in charge, the court did not need to be amended. The problem has to do with the indictment, which was formulated as allowed not conclude that Manuel fired a shot in the grandmother and the other daughter, “he added.

Your role as lawyer is “exhausted all defense mechanisms” to clarify the facts in favor of his client, despite admitting “have no expectation of punishment.”
