Book excerpt: This pack sets out the first report by the Pensions Commission, an independent body established by the Government (following the publication of the Pensions Green Paper ("Simplicity, security and choice: working and saving for retirement", Cm 5677, ISBN 0101567723) in December 2002) in order to review the adequacy of current arrangements for private pensions and retirement savings in the UK and to make recommendations on appropriate policy changes. This report sets out the Commissions detailed analysis of the current situation and trends in place, challenges identified and options for policy responses; and seeks to stimulate a structured, comprehensive fact-based debate about the problems facing Britains pension system which can contribute to the development of a sustainable pensions policy. The pack contains the main report, appendices and executive summary documents. (The main report (ISBN 0117027804) and the free executive summary (ISBN 0117027820) are available separately). The Commissions second report is planned for Autumn 2005, and this will include specific policy recommendations, following a public consultation period to the end of January 2005. However, the report does make recommendations relating to improvements in official data sources, which are discussed in an appendix and listed at the end of the main report.

Download or read book Pension Reform in Europe written by Camila Arza and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-08-07 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book provides a cross-country comparative analysis of the key issues shaping the latest pension reforms in Europe: political games, welfare models and pathways, population reactions, and observed and expected outcomes. Pension reform has been a top policy priority for European governments in the last decade. Ageing populations, changing labour market patterns and the process of European integration are the ‘irresistible forces’ pushing for reform throughout the region. The Political Economy of Pension Reform evaluates the political forces that make pension reform viable in different national and institutional contexts and the nature of political bargains, actors and cleavages surrounding policy change. The volume also examines the nature and outcomes of pension reform experiences in Europe, searching for a solution to the financial challenge posed by growing pension budgets. By addressing the nature of change, the pathways of reform, and the outcomes of the new pension mix in the region, the authors conclude with an analysis of people’s perceptions and attitudes towards pension policy and their acceptance or otherwise of different reform options. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of international political economy, European politics, and social policy.

This book was released on 2012-11-15 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the burgeoning literature on welfare regimes and typologies, this comparative study offers a stimulating new perspective. Kaufmann, the doyen of the sociology of social policy in Germany, emphasizes norms, culture and history, in contrast to political economy approaches. Comparing Britain, Sweden, France and Germany, Kaufmann highlights the „idiosyncrasy” of each welfare state: countries are compared with regard to their state traditions and the relationship between state and civil society; their national “social questions”; their economic systems, including the unions and labour law; social security and redistribution; and their personal social services and education. The socio-cultural approach enables Kaufmann to show that not all modern states are welfare states. Some are just „capitalism“ (the USA), others are „socialism“ (the former Soviet Union). In this light, the (essentially North-West European) welfare state is portrayed as a third way between capitalism and socialism.

Download or read book Taxation, Wage Bargaining, and Unemployment written by Isabela Mares and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-02-13 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why were European economies able to pursue the simultaneous commitment to full employment and welfare state expansion during the first decades of the postwar period and why did this virtuous relationship break down during recent decades? This book provides an answer to this question, by highlighting the critical importance of a political exchange between unions and governments, premised on wage moderation in exchange for the expansion of social services and transfers. The strategies pursued by these actors in these political exchanges are influenced by existing wage bargaining institutions, the character of monetary policy and by the level and composition of social policy transfers. The book demonstrates that the gradual growth in the fiscal burden has undermined the effectiveness of this political exchange, lowering the ability of unions' wage policies to affect employment outcomes.

Download or read book The Neoliberal Age? written by Aled Davies and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries are commonly characterised as an age of ‘neoliberalism’ in which individualism, competition, free markets and privatisation came to dominate Britain’s politics, economy and society. This historical framing has proven highly controversial, within both academia and contemporary political and public debate. Standard accounts of neoliberalism generally focus on the influence of political ideas in reshaping British politics; according to this narrative, neoliberalism was a right-wing ideology, peddled by political economists, think-tanks and politicians from the 1930s onwards, which finally triumphed in the 1970s and 1980s. The Neoliberal Age? suggests this narrative is too simplistic. Where the standard story sees neoliberalism as right-wing, this book points to some left-wing origins, too; where the standard story emphasises the agency of think-tanks and politicians, this book shows that other actors from the business world were also highly significant. Where the standard story can suggest that neoliberalism transformed subjectivities and social lives, this book illuminates other forces which helped make Britain more individualistic in the late twentieth century. The analysis thus takes neoliberalism seriously but also shows that it cannot be the only explanatory framework for understanding contemporary Britain. The book showcases cutting-edge research, making it useful to researchers and students, as well as to those interested in understanding the forces that have shaped our recent past.

Download or read book Nonfinancial Defined Contribution Pension Schemes in a Changing Pension World written by Robert Holzmann and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2012-11-01 with total page 535 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonfinancial Defined Contribution (NDC) schemes are now in their teens. The new pension concept was born in the early 1990s, implemented from the mid-1990s in Italy, Latvia, Poland and Sweden, legislated most recently in Norway and Egypt and serves as inspiration for other reform countries. This innovative unfunded individual account scheme created high hopes at a time when the world seemed to have been locked into a stalemate between piecemeal reforms of ailing traditional defined benefit schemes and introducing pre-funded financial account schemes. The experiences and conceptual issues of NDC in its childhood were reviewed in a prior anthology (Holzmann and Palmer, 2006). This new anthology published in 2 volumes serves to review its adolescence and with the aim of contributing to a successful adulthood. Volume 1 on Progress, Lessons, Implementation includes a detailed analysis of the experience and the key policy lessons in the old and new pilot countries and the implementation of NDCs elements in other reform countries. This volume 2 on Gender, Politics, Financial Stability includes deeper and new analyses of these issues that found little or no attention in the 2006 publication. The gender perspective includes 5 chapters with, perhaps, the most complete discussion on gender and pension issues available to date. The financial stability perspective addresses in 6 chapters critical micro- and macroeconomic aspects such as the balancing mechanism, the use of a reserve fund, the handling of legacy costs, and technicalities related to the management of the longevity risk when designing annuities. While the 2 volumes address many issues it also opens a number of new questions for which good answers are not yet readily available.

Download or read book Trusting in the Pensions Promise written by Great Britain: Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2006-03-14 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report sets out the results of the Ombudsman's investigation into over 200 complaints about the security of final salary occupational pension schemes and alleged delays in the winding-up of certain such schemes, and the involvement of public bodies in this matter. Chapter 1 explains the Ombudsman's role and jurisdiction and the background to the investigation. Chapter 2 details the complaints, and the Government's initial response; chapter 3 sets out the results of further enquiries to help understand the context of the complaints. The fourth chapter provides the evidence that the investigation has disclosed through consideration of departmental files, official publications and other documentary sources. Chapters 5 and 6 contain the findings and the recommendations. The seventh chapter gives the Ombudsman's assessment of the Government response (appendix D) to the report, and the final chapter is the Ombudsman's conclusion. The Ombudsman makes three findings of maladministration by public bodies: (i) official information about the security that members of final salary schemes could expect from the minimum funding requirement (MFR) was sometimes inaccurate, often incomplete, largely inconsistent and therefore potentially misleading; (ii) the response by DWP to the actuarial profession's recommendation that disclosure should be made to pension scheme members of the risks of wind-up and the risks to accrued pension rights; (iii) the decision in 2002 by DWP to approve a change to the MFR basis. This maladministration was a significant contributory factor in the creation of the financial losses suffered by individuals, amounting to injustice. Recommendations include restoration of the core pension and non-core benefits and some consolatory payments to those fully covered by the recommendations, an apology to scheme trustees for the effects of the maladministration, and a review with the pensions industry to improve the time taken to wind up schemes. The Government, however, is minded not to comply with all of the recommendations, and so the Ombudsman reports to both Houses of Parliament that she has identified injustice caused by maladministration which the Government does not propose to remedy.
