These actions, along with sustainable investments in competitive financial instruments, guarantee the stability of the Pension and Retirement Fund.

In the social sphere, the institution inaugurated a new Service Center in Baní, Peravia province, with dental care and other complementary services for teachers and their families.
User satisfaction reached 93% in 2025, a result of the effort to improve quality and speed in services such as Survival, Funeral Insurance and Dignified Master Loan.
"We will continue to move forward with faith, determination and transparency, building a modern, efficient and humane INABIMA at the service of teachers and their families," expressed Pimentel Pimentel.
