Book Synopsis Positioning Pensions for the Twenty-First Century by : Michael S. Gordon
Download or read book Positioning Pensions for the Twenty-First Century written by Michael S. Gordon and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 1997-04-29 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the United States comes to terms with the pending insolvency of social security, workers are increasingly pinning their hopes for retirement adequacy on employer-sponsored plans. Positioning Pensions for the Twenty-First Century analyzes the role of pensions in retirement security, examining how these programs will evolve to meet the challenges to our nation's retirement system. The book brings together a team of leading economists, corporate and labor specialists, actuaries, and policy experts to examine the future of retirement options within the context of emerging labor and business trends and innovative developments in the pension community. They show how a successful public and private pension system can be sustained and strengthened and demonstrate how employer pensions can be configured against a delicately financed social insurance system. The book's contributions examine where pensions have succeeded and failed over the last several decades and point to positive new developments in the pension arena. Its coverage includes innovative pension options such as hybrid and cash-balance plans; pension funding regulations; changes in GATT laws altering pension insurance premiums; and emerging developments concerning administrative costs and pension obligation bonds. It also features new research on defined contribution plan investment options and includes three case studies of participant-directed pension investments, telling how thousands of workers are allocating their pension savings in 401(k) and related plans. Positioning Pensions for the Twenty-First Century is essential reading for all managers, employees, and policymakers concerned with designing pension systems that can withstand the challenges of the next decade.

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 Creditor Rights and the Public Interest by : Janis Pearl Sarra
Download or read book Creditor Rights and the Public Interest written by Janis Pearl Sarra and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creditor Rights and the Public Interest supports the greater representation of non-traditional creditors in the process of insolvency restructuring in Canada, concentrating particularly on restructuring under the federal Companies' Creditors' Arrangement Act (CCAA). Arguing in favour of the representation of such non-traditional creditors as workers, consumers, trade suppliers, and local governments, Janis Sarra describes the existing process of addressing their interests, analyzes four case studies that focus on non-creditor groups, and compares the Canadian approach to that of several other countries, such as Germany, France, and the United States. Sarra draws on a comprehensive body of academic literature that covers a broad range of issues--insolvency theory, corporate governance theory, legislative history, and bankruptcy and insolvency practice. She further surveys the relevant legislation and supplements her analysis with insights drawn from extensive primary research of court records and personal interviews with lawyers, judges, and government officials. Creditor Rights and the Public Interest ultimately illustrates the way in which the concept of the public interest can be utilized to foreground the concerns of non-traditional stakeholders. Sarra provides a coherent account of the justification for recognizing these creditors by situating insolvency law in a legal regime that realizes a duty to maximize all of the interests and investments at stake in the corporation. In an academic field where scholarship is currently scarce, Sarra's text will be a welcome contribution.

Book Synopsis Trusting in the Pensions Promise by : Great Britain: Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman
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.
