Petro also plans to develop a system that is “mixed-and-complementary” with private funds.

The candidate has stated that in Colombia “we don’t have pension systems, but banks have a profit system,” so many claim that he will eliminate the possibility of achieving the presidency. Petro has recently stated that he wouldn’t eliminate the system but would push for reforms to the pension system in order to provide the minimum amount of income to Colombians.
