The net profit of the 10 Afores collectively rose from 5,930.8 million pesos in July of last year to 6,488.1 million pesos in the seventh month of 2024. This result was propelled by a 12% increase in commission revenues, which amounted to 20,130.3 million pesos.

It’s important to note that the commissions charged by Afores to workers for managing their funds are capped at a maximum of 0.53% of the annual balance, a rate applied by eight out of ten Administrators.
