Book Synopsis An Evolving Pension System by : David Rajnes
Download or read book An Evolving Pension System written by David Rajnes and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Issue Brief examines trends in employment-based defined benefit (DB) and defined contribution (DC) pension plans since 1975. The analysis relies extensively on Form 5500 reports submitted by plan sponsors and published by the Department of Labor, although other sources of information are used. The Issue Brief goes beyond a general description of trends in the number of qualified private-sector plans, participants, and plan contributions and assets to examine why DB plans have steadily lost ground as the preferred plan type in recent decades. It explores several explanations for the increased use of DC plans and cites the research and lines of reasoning used to support them. These reasons include government regulation; changes in the work place; business environment and risk associated with funding and managing pension plans; firm size; increased global competition; and the successful marketing efforts of consultants and DC plan service providers. Developments in the public sector--on the federal and state and local levels--are discussed. The report addresses public policy implications raised by the movement away from DB toward DC (and hybrid) plan designs. Important issues in this context include possible sources of future retirement income; the impact of job stability on the portability of retirement benefits as well as benefit preservation and decumulation; and the extent to which alternative retirement plan designs satisfy the needs of both employer and employee. A closing section examines two topics of importance to retirement plans: changes in the tax code resulting from the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act (EGTRRA) of 2001 and recent developments in corporate governance reform and financial disclosure. The report updates information contained in a 1997 EBRI analysis of the same subject, and includes sections on plan design and operational issues that are combined into an appendix to provide basic background on how retirement plans work.

Book Synopsis Assessing Chile's Pension System: Challenges and Reform Options by : Samuel Pienknagura
Download or read book Assessing Chile's Pension System: Challenges and Reform Options written by Samuel Pienknagura and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2021-09-10 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chile’s pension system came under close scrutiny in recent years. This paper takes stock of the adequacy of the system and highlights its challenges. Chile’s defined contribution system was quite influential when introduced, and was taken as an example by other countries. However, it is now delivering low replacement rates relative to OECD peers, as its parameters did not adapt over time to changing demographics and global returns, while informality persists in the labor market. In the absence of reforms, the system’s inability to deliver adequate outcomes for a large share of participants will continue to magnify, as demographic trends and low global interest rates will continue to reduce replacement rates. In addition, recent legislation allowing for pension savings withdrawals to counter the effects from the COVID-19 pandemic, is projected to further reduce replacement rates and increase fiscal costs. A substantial improvement in replacement rates is feasible, via a reform that raises contribution rates and the retirement age, coupled with policies that increases workers’ contribution density.

Book Synopsis Experts Track Continuing Evolution of U.S. Pension System by : John A. MacDonald
Download or read book Experts Track Continuing Evolution of U.S. Pension System written by John A. MacDonald and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Employee Benefit Research Institute's spring 2007 policy forum, held in Washington, DC, focused on how retirement plan sponsors are reacting to and dealing with major developments in the pension world: Enactment of the Pension Protection Act (PPA) of 2006, which imposed new funding rules on pension plans (among other things), and major new accounting rules issued by the private-sector Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the public-sector Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB). This paper recaps the experts' reactions -- at EBRI's spring 2007 policy forum -- to these major developments. Change has been a near-constant in the U.S. pension system, the experts noted. One theme emerged at the policy forum: New accounting rules -- rather than new pension funding laws by Congress -- may be the determining factor that triggers the next big shake-up in pension coverage.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Most books about pension fund investing are theory. Rusty Olsons book is fact. Its a report from the frontlines of the management of pension fund assets at a time when new investment vehicles were being developed on a regular basis. Rusty and his crew at the Kodak fund were the pioneers who tried many of these new ideas, some of which flew while theirs crashed. This is a blow-by-blow account of the learning experience, the successes and failures (mostly successes), and the ultimate investment success of the Kodak fund. It should be read by anyone managing assets in a fiduciary capacity. Michael J. Clowes

Book Synopsis The Employment-Based Pension System by : John A. MacDonald
Download or read book The Employment-Based Pension System written by John A. MacDonald and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where are retirement plans headed, and why? The Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI) and AARP (formerly known as the American Association of Retired Persons) held a day-long conference May 15, 2006, in Washington, DC, to examine those questions. Several speakers at the conference, formally titled "The Employment-Based Pension System: Evolution or Revolution?" predicted that the evolution currently under way will lead to radical change and the ultimate demise of private-sector defined benefit pension plans. The next day many Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) stations aired a Frontline program entitled "Can You Afford to Retire?" which highlighted these issues, and raised many other questions about Americans' preparations for retirement. PBS Frontline producer and reporter Hedrick Smith previewed the program at the conference. This paper presents key points that emerged from the conference.
