    Pensions (2026)

    Updated October 26, 2026

    Key takeaway

    There is no agreed ranking. Amit Gal, head of the Capital Markets, Insurance and Savings Authority, is first for Gemini, ChatGPT and Google AI Mode in some answers, while Copilot puts Ilan Raviv of Meitav first. Gemini ties influence to regulatory authority, market leadership and public advocacy. Copilot ties it to pension fund executives ranked by Forbes Israel, such as the CEOs of Meitav, Phoenix and Menora Mivtachim.

      Key Notes

      • These individuals are ranked based on visibility, client influence, and recognized expertise in pensions and retirement saving in Israel.

      • The list excludes institutions and focuses only on real individual professionals who actively shape retirement planning discourse.

      • Influence is determined by a combination of media presence, client reach, and professional recognition in the Israeli pension advisory sector.

      Would you like me to also map out which of these experts are more media-facing (public voices) versus those who are primarily client advisors? That distinction could help if you’re looking for thought leaders versus practical consultants.
