Book Synopsis Privatizing Social Security by : Martin Feldstein
Download or read book Privatizing Social Security written by Martin Feldstein and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume represents the most important work to date on one of the pressing policy issues of the moment: the privatization of social security. Although social security is facing enormous fiscal pressure in the face of an aging population, there has been relatively little published on the fundamentals of essential reform through privatization. Privatizing Social Security fills this void by studying the methods and problems involved in shifting from the current system to one based on mandatory saving in individual accounts. "Timely and important. . . . [Privatizing Social Security] presents a forceful case for a radical shift from the existing unfunded, pay-as-you-go single national program to a mandatory funded program with individual savings accounts. . . . An extensive analysis of how a privatized plan would work in the United States is supplemented with the experiences of five other countries that have privatized plans." —Library Journal "[A] high-powered collection of essays by top experts in the field."—Timothy Taylor, Public Interest

Book Synopsis Transition Paths and Social Security Reform by : John Laitner
Download or read book Transition Paths and Social Security Reform written by John Laitner and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A basic difference between a pay-as-you-go (PAYGO) public pension system and one with fully funded private accounts lies in the startup. From its inception, a PAYGO system can pass contributions from current workers to current retirees. A funded system must either spend decades accumulating tax revenues before beginning benefit payments, or society must provide external funds to create the system's initial account balances. This paper shows that the same logic governs reform of a PAYGO into a private account system. Presuming that only the second procedure above is feasible for reform, one would have to find external funds to create initial account balances. After that step, the new system could be autonomously viable.

Book Synopsis Social Security, Demographics, and Risk by : Christoph Borgmann
Download or read book Social Security, Demographics, and Risk written by Christoph Borgmann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume addresses the most important issues of the ongoing discussion on designing social security. It provides fundamental results for pay-as-you-go social security, covers the issues of social security during demographic transition and examines the inclusion of risk aspects into the analysis of social security. An empirical case study of Germany yields the surprising result that de facto the German public pension scheme already comprises an implicit demographic factor. This book allows a subtle understanding of how interacting risks are treated within different pension systems and thereby provides a basis for the development of innovative ways of risk sharing.
Book Synopsis The Gender Impact of Social Security Reform by : Estelle James
Download or read book The Gender Impact of Social Security Reform written by Estelle James and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-09-15 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As populations age and revenues diminish, government and private pension funds around the world are facing insolvency. The looming social security crisis is especially dire for women, who live longer than men but have worked less in the formal labor force. This groundbreaking study examines alternative social security systems and their disparate impacts on men and women. Emphasis is placed on the new multi-pillar systems that combine a publicly managed benefit and a mandatory private retirement saving plan. The Gender Impact of Social Security Reform compares the gendered outcomes of social security systems in Chile, Argentina, and Mexico, and presents empirical findings from Eastern and Central European transition economies as well as several OECD countries. Women’s positions have improved relative to men in countries where joint pensions have been required, widows who have worked can keep the joint pension in addition to their own benefit, the public benefit has been targeted toward low earners, and women’s retirement age has been raised to equality with that of men. The Gender Impact of Social Security Reform will force economists and policy makers to reexamine the design features that enable social security systems to achieve desirable gender outcomes.
Book Synopsis Control Your Retirement Destiny by : Dana Anspach
Download or read book Control Your Retirement Destiny written by Dana Anspach and published by Book's Mind. This book was released on 2016-08-18 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People in their fifties start to wonder: When should I retire? Once I do, when should I take Social Security? Do I need to buy an annuity to make sure I have enough money to last my whole life? Should I move everything into "safe" investments? In short, what do I need to do now to ensure a comfortable retirement? Control Your Retirement Destiny: Achieving Financial Security Before the Big Transition provides practical how-to knowledge on what you need to do to get your finances in order to prepare for a transition out of the workforce. While never easy, retirement investing from your 20s through your early 50s has been straightforward. But once you hit your mid 50s and beyond, you need a different kind of plan to align investments, retirement accounts, taxes, Social Security, and pension decisions, all with a single objective: providing reliable, life-long income. In this book, nationally known retirement expert Dana Anspach explains how each part works, how one decision affects another, and how to focus on the things you can control (like managing taxes and risk) rather than on those you can't control (such as inflation or investment returns). When you put it all together in a plan that works for you, you'll have more choices and a greater sense of security about the financial decisions you are making. A transition into retirement can be scary. Control Your Retirement Destiny equips you with the knowledge you'll need to avoid big mistakes while optimizing the flow of funds to support the retirement you've always dreamed of. This book: - Covers all the major topics in retirement planning - investments, Social Security, annuities, taxes, healthcare, part-time work, and more - Provides examples of how planning decisions can result in a more secure outcome when they are coordinated - Helps couples coordinate their retirement incomes to maximize benefits - Shows how to create a plan to enable the life you'd like to live after ending full-time employment - Explains how to work with advisors (and how to find the best ones) if you'd rather not plan your own finances Control Your Retirement Destiny: Achieving Financial Security Before the Big Transition is for those who are beginning to think about when and how they might transition out of regular, full-time work. It will enable you to take charge of your financial future right now to ensure a happy, secure retirement.
Book Synopsis Social Security Programs and Retirement around the World by : Jonathan Gruber
Download or read book Social Security Programs and Retirement around the World written by Jonathan Gruber and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2009-02-15 with total page 752 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social Security Programs and Retirement around the World represents the second stage of an ongoing research project studying the relationship between social security and labor. In the first volume, Jonathan Gruber and David A. Wise revealed enormous disincentives to continued work at older ages in developed countries. Provisions of many social security programs typically encourage retirement by reducing pay for work, inducing older employees to leave the labor force early and magnifying the financial burden caused by an aging population. At a certain age there is simply no financial benefit to continuing to work. In this volume, the authors turn to a country-by-country analysis of retirement behavior based on micro-data. The result of research compiled by teams in twelve countries, the volume shows an almost uniform correlation between levels of social security incentives and retirement behavior in each country. The estimates also show that the effect is strikingly uniform in countries with very different cultural histories, labor market institutions, and other social characteristics.

Book Synopsis The Transition Path in Privatizing Social Security by : Martin S. Feldstein
Download or read book The Transition Path in Privatizing Social Security written by Martin S. Feldstein and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This paper analyzes the transition from the existing pay-as-you-go Social Security program to a system of funded Mandatory" Individual Retirement Accounts (MIRAs). Because of the high return on real capital relative to the very low return in a mature pay-as-you-go program, the benefits that can be financed with the existing 12.4 percent payroll tax could eventually be funded with mandatory contributions of only 2.1 percent of payroll. A transition to that fully funded program could be done with a surcharge of less than 1.5 percent of payroll during the early part of the transition. After 25 years, the combination of financing the pay-as-you-go benefits and accumulating the funded accounts would require less than the current 12.4 percent of payroll. The paper also discusses how a MIRA system could deal with the benefits of low income employees and with the risks associated with uncertain longevity and fluctuating market returns.
