The answer

It is forbidden to subscribe to investment funds in usurious banks, even if they are commercial and not solidarity-based. One must resign immediately and take only the amount of money that was deducted. If the subscription was compulsory, then upon reaching retirement or death, only the deducted amount should be taken. Any excess is considered ill-gotten gain that must be disposed of by spending it on general Muslim welfare.
