How much will contributory pensions rise in 2025?
While waiting for confirmation from the Government that arrived yesterday, in the last Council of Ministers of the year, we already calculated how this increase in contributory pensions of 2.8% would look as soon as we knew the CPI data from last month . It remained at 2.4% and from there it is calculated with the revaluation formula included in the Pension reform law in which the twelve-month average interannual CPI (from December of the previous year to November of the current year) is taken into account as a reference to determine the increase in these benefits.
All pensions will increase by 2.8%, which represents an increase of around 600 euros a year for the average retirement pension and 500 euros for the system average pensionwhich includes others such as disability or widowhood. The increase will also affect the minimum system pension.
Regarding the minimum pensions What if your pension is less than these figures? When the result of the pension calculation does not reach these data, a minimum supplement can be requested.
