Cassa Nazionale di Previdenza ed Assistenza Ragionieri e Periti Commerciali

Cassa Nazionale di Previdenza ed Assistenza Ragionieri e Periti Commerciali, also known as CNPR, is the national welfare and assistance fund dedicated to accountants and commercial experts in Italy. It provides pension and social security benefits to members of these professions. The fund also offers supplementary assistance such as health care subsidies and professional support services. Its activities are limited to the Italian territory and serve the specific professional category of accountants and commercial experts. CNPR’s role is to ensure financial protection and assistance for its members throughout their careers and into retirement.

As a specialized fund, CNPR distinguishes itself by focusing exclusively on the accountancy and commercial expertise sectors, unlike broader multi‑profession welfare bodies. Its headquarters are situated in Italy, reflecting its national mandate within the country’s social security system. The organization operates as a national fund responsible for delivering welfare benefits to its members. In February 2023, CNPR suffered a ransomware attack by the LockBit 3.0 group that encrypted systems and exfiltrated confidential data, including contracts, personal information and financial records. The attack caused temporary service disruptions and required password resets for user accounts after services were restored.
