Summary/Abstract: This paper represents a synthesis of both theoretical and practical research studies in the field of voluntary pension funds in Republic of Serbia. The authors have selected two significant segments in the scope of these funds contributing to their unobstructed functioning. These refer to the legal and institutional frameworks for the protection of pension funds. Our country is among the last to have introduced the possibility of voluntary pension insurance. This was done by passing an independent Law on Voluntary Pension Funds and Pension Plans. The National Bank of Serbia passed a large number of bylaws regulating their business conduct in our country in more detail. The legal protection frameworks for these funds span across the other branches of law (criminal law, misdemeanor law, and other). In this way, the normative domain of voluntary pension funds functioning has been rounded off. Institutional frameworks for the protection of voluntary pension funds are entrusted to the National Bank of Serbia, which supervises their functioning. This institution can also conduct the supervision over legal entities connected with the subject of the supervision by property, management or business relations, thus enabling a complete insight into their business conduct.
