Book Synopsis Pensions in the Netherlands by : Stella Hoff
Download or read book Pensions in the Netherlands written by Stella Hoff and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like Japan, the Netherlands has an aging population. As a consequence, the affordability of old-age pensions is under pressure. The labour market is also changing, with people more often changing jobs or choosing to become self-employed. Both trends raise the question of whether the pension system in its current form still meets the needs of working people today and in the future. The Dutch Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment asked the Netherlands Institute for Social Research scp to carry out a study of the support for solidarity in the Dutch supplementary pension system. Do working people still want to build up their pension in a collective system? What social trends are relevant here? Do employees prefer solidarity or choice? And to what extent do they express a preference for collective or individual pension schemes? This report answers these questions.

Download or read book Pensions written by Sinéad Agnew and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-08-20 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: State pensions are the largest item in the UK social security budget, costing £96.7 billion in 2017/18. In the same year, 45.6 million people were members of UK occupational pension schemes (out of a total population of 66.4 million) and the total amount saved into workplace schemes in 2018 was £90.4 billion. A consequence of the pensions sector's large size has been that pensions law and social security law have become increasingly specialised areas of practice. Yet despite their social and economic importance and the fascinating legal issues they generate, pensions have not been the subject of sustained academic attention. This book starts to fill this gap by initiating a dialogue between practitioners and scholars working on pensions law and policy, groups who have much to learn from one another.

This book was released on 2011-11-09 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the face of the recent financial crisis there is increased focus on long-term investment strategies. This is particularly true for institutional investors who manage our retirement savings. Simultaneously there is increased demand that financial assets be invested with an understanding of long-term environmental and social sustainability. Responsible investing provides a long-term sustainable investment strategy that values environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors in investment decision-making. Responsible Investing has always had a broad mandate. Put simply, it is a long-term sustainable investment strategy that seeks to reduce risk in investment portfolios through managing ESG issues in today’s corporations. The Next Generation of Responsible Investment explores this topic in an edited volume intended for those with an interest in finance and business.

Download or read book Netherlands written by International Monetary Fund. European Dept. and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2013-05-10 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Netherlands is an AAA euro area (EA) economy with significant private sector imbalances. The main policy challenge is to restore growth and manage downside risks while allowing for an orderly adjustment of private sector balance sheets. A focus on medium-term objectives will cement policy credibility and mitigate uncertainty. The financial system must reduce its dependence on wholesale financing, and banks reliant on public sector support need to wind down this support. Reforms in the labor markets and human capital will be important in safeguarding the economy’s growth potential.
Book Synopsis Risk-Based Supervision of Pension Funds by : Greg Brunner
Download or read book Risk-Based Supervision of Pension Funds written by Greg Brunner and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2008-04-01 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Risk-Based Supervision of Pension Funds' provides a review of the design and experience of risk-based pension fund supervision in countries that have been leaders in the development of these methods. The utilization of risk-based methods originates primarily in the supervision of banks. In recent years it has increasingly been extended to other types of financial intermediaries, including pension funds and insurers. The trend toward risk-based supervision of pensions reflects an increasing focus on risk management in both banking and insurance based on three key elements: capital requirements, supervisory review, and market discipline. Although similar in concept to the techniques developed in banking, its application to pension funds has required modifications, particularly for defined contribution funds that transfer investment risk to fund members. The countries examined–Australia, Denmark, Mexico, and the Netherlands–provide a range of experience that illustrates both the diversity of pension systems and the approaches to risk-based supervision, and also presents a commonality of focus on sound risk management and effective supervisory outcomes.
Book Synopsis Pension Fund Capitalism by : Leokadia Oręziak
Download or read book Pension Fund Capitalism written by Leokadia Oręziak and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-04-10 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the origins and consequences of so-called pension fund capitalism, which has spread around the world since 1981, when the pension system was completely privatized in Chile. The author highlights the driving forces behind the privatization of pensions, its forms and tools used in practice, and the risks and costs related to private pensions. The reader can also learn about the experiences of various developed countries (including the USA, Canada, Australia, and Germany), as well as Latin American (including Chile) and Eastern European countries, related to the privatization of pensions. Particular attention is paid to Poland as an example of a country where such privatization failed completely. This book provides a source of serious reflection on what this privatization has led to, what its real economic and social consequences are and what the likelihood is of reversing it and strengthening the public pension system. Academic researchers and students of economics and finance, as well as social and political sciences, will find the book invaluable in understanding the problems arising from the privatization of pensions. It will also be of interest to professionals: institutions that shape or influence economic and social policy, including political parties, trade unions, non-governmental organizations, the media, and institutions operating on the financial market.

Book excerpt: The dramatic decline in the stock market has diminished pension savings and reportedly led to low levels in older Americans¿ confidence in their ability to retire. Even before the current economic recession, research indicated that pension benefits are likely to be inadequate for many Americans. This report addresses the following questions: (1) What are key risks faced by U.S. workers in accumulating and preserving pension benefits? (2) What approaches are used in other countries that could address these risks and what trade-offs do they present? (3) What approaches do key proposals for alternative plan designs in the U.S. suggest to mitigate risks faced by workers and what trade-offs do they entail? Charts and tables.

Monetary and Capital Markets Department and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2017-04-13 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The governance, accountability, and internal processes of the supervisors, operating under a well-functioning twin-peaks model, are robust. With two-tier boards that include independent members, and an internal audit department, the governance structure of both supervisors is vigorous. Detailed documentation supports the internal processes. The planned activities, several regular publications, and comprehensive reporting result in enhanced transparency and accountability of the supervisors. The Netherlands Central Bank (De Nederlandsche Bank N.V.; DNB) and the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets (Autoriteit Financiële Markten; AFM) have created second lines of defense that control the quality and consistent application of the supervision. Information sharing and cooperation between the DNB and AFM is well established and allows for the proper functioning of the twin-peaks model. At the time of the 2016 FSAP, the AFM had been operating under a newly adopted structure for only a few months. The AFM structure needs to reach maximum functionality and efficiency, and strong guidance from the board is required to effectively support its supervisory vision and approach.
Book Synopsis Pension Fund Economics and Finance by : Jacob Bikker
Download or read book Pension Fund Economics and Finance written by Jacob Bikker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pension fund benefits are crucial for pensioners’ welfare and pension fund savings have accumulated to huge amounts, covering a major part of world-wide institutional investments. However, the literature on pension fund economics and finance is rather limited, caused, in part, to limited data availability. This book contributes to this literature and focuses on three important areas. The first is pension fund (in)efficiency, which has a huge impact on final benefits, particularly when annual spoilage accumulates over a lifetime. Scale economies, pension plans complexity and alternative pension saving plans are important issues. The second area is investment behavior and risk-taking. A key question refers to the allocation of investments over high risk/high return and relatively safe assets. Bikker investigates whether pension funds follow the life-cycle hypothesis: more risk and return for pension funds with young participants. Many pension funds are rather limited in size, which may raise the question how financially sophisticated the pension fund decision makers are: rather professionals or closer to unskilled private persons? The third field concerns two regulation issues. How do pension fund respond to shocks such as unexpected investment returns or changes in life expectancy? What are the welfare implications to the beneficiary for different methods of securing pension funding: solvency requirements, a pension guarantee fund, or sponsor support? This groundbreaking book will challenge the way pension fund economics is thought about and practiced.

This book was released on 2024-06-18 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dutch insurance sector is undergoing further consolidation, the life sector has been steadily shrinking over the last two decades, and the non-life market is relatively saturated. Sales of new life products, especially individual life business, have decreased since the early 2000s, putting pressure on the business models of life insurers. The non-life market is dominated by compulsory health insurance, which covers medical expenses and has replaced public health insurance in the 1990s. Dutch insurers have also become more domestically oriented–among the large life insurers (or their respective parent groups), those who received government funding during the global financial crisis were required to restructure parts of their business.

Book Synopsis Industrial Relations and European State Traditions by : Colin Crouch
Download or read book Industrial Relations and European State Traditions written by Colin Crouch and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In some western European countries trade unions and employers' organizations share responsibility with government for maintaining order and efficiency in the labour market as a matter of course. in others such a role is seen as an unacceptable interference with either the free market or the prerogatives of the state, or both. How can we explain these differences? How enduring are they? Do they matter? In the 1970s there seemed to be a growing popularity for the first approach, leading to the explosion of interest in neo-corporatism; did all that evaporate during the ostensibly neo-liberal 1980s? Colin Crouch tries to answer these questions with reference to fifteen western European nations. Using a combination of rational choice theory and historical analysis he traces the development of industrial relations systems in these countries from the 1870s to the present. He ends by seeking explanations for differences further back in time, showing that longer-term historical explanations of contemporary institutions are more necessary than most exercises in policy analysis prefer to accept. 'an outstanding example of the fusion of theoretical economic analysis with historical perspective. Recommended at all levels' Choice 'It is difficult to do justice to this oustanding book in a short review or at a single reading. Colin Crouch's ambitious comparative survey of states and industrial relations provides both an abstract framework for comparative study . . . and a framework for comparing the level and form of corporatism in industrial relations.'
