The Fund was established through UN General Assembly resolution 248 (III) (passed December 1948) which came into effect on the 23rd January, 1949 making it a permanent retirement scheme.

It currently serves 23 member organizations, with 128,262 active participants and approximately 75,000 retirees in nearly 200 countries.
