The draft budget for the state social security fund (DOO) sets the minimum pension at €374.62 from 1 July. BNT's "Around the World and at Home" programme has obtained the draft, which has yet to be adopted.

The maximum pension will also be updated from 1 July, under the Swiss rule.

The other changes start earlier, on 1 January. Insurable income will have a floor of €660 and a cap of €2,400. Maternity benefit in the second year will be €450.

Unemployment benefits will change too. The minimum will be €13 and the maximum €60.76.

The fund's budget is more than €16bn, of which more than €14.6bn is for pensions. The state budget will pay more than €6.7bn into the system.
