The Vanuatu National Provident Fund (VNPF) is a compulsory pension scheme in Vanuatu. It was established in 1986 and commenced operation in 1987.[1] The General Manager is Parmod Achary.[2]

From 1992 to 1995 VNPF was involved in controversy due to its housing loan scheme.[1] In 2017 an inquiry found that it was "poorly managed and suffered from interference from a board unqualified and ill-suited to the task."[3]
