The purpose of this research is to study the positive and negative aspects of pension savings early withdrawal. A review of foreign experience and literature was conducted; the opinion of expert practitioners in economics, in particular, the financial sphere, was taken into account. Since the recent reforms carried out in the early withdrawal pension system have an impact on future pension payments, there is a need to study this issue. A qualitative research method was applied to determine the positive and negative aspects of the early withdrawal of pension savings using the QDA Miner Lite software. An analysis was carried out on the leading four indicators – factors, advantages and disadvantages, and government readiness. The international experience that has been analyzed shows that in any country, if contributors in their pension fund do not have enough savings to ensure an adequate level of replacement rate, then early withdrawal of funds is not allowed. Their further savings and investment are provided. The opinions of experts regarding the premature use of pension savings are divided. Suppose some believe this situation will lead to an imbalance in the pension system and insufficient pensions in the future. Others believe that it will improve the current well-being of the population. Experts also note that the efficiency of the UAPF will not improve in any way, and the effect on the economy and the population’s welfare will be indistinct and short-term. The results of the study can be used for further development of the pension system.
