Book Synopsis Pensions in the European Union: Adapting to Economic and Social Change by : Gerard Hughes
Download or read book Pensions in the European Union: Adapting to Economic and Social Change written by Gerard Hughes and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ageing, financial and labour market challenges facing the old age pension systems of the member states of the European Union are well known. Those who cast doubt on the ability of the present system of pension provision - at least to the extent that it is pay-as-you-go financed - to cope with the problems posed by these challenges are getting more vociferous. Increasingly there are calls for pay-as-you-go systems to be cut back and for funded systems to be expanded. This book contests the view that funding is the answer. It shows how adaptable the largely pay-as-you-go old age pension systems in the European Union are. Actuaries, economists, lawyers, political scientists, pension advisers, and sociologists, from nine European countries and the United States, consider four main themes: population ageing, competitiveness and retirement; pension financing and economic growth; adapting pension systems to meet change; and decision-making processes. They argue that pay-as-you-go-financed old age pension systems in the European Union have the ability to successfully adapt to economic and social change provided they do not take on too many non-insurance-related risks. Solving the problems of the labour market and controlling the direction and extent of economic development are beyond the powers of old age pension systems, regardless of how they are structured or financed. Separate budgets for separate risks is an indispensable principle if the complex processes of social protection are to be successfully managed, monitored, and made transparent. There can be no single plan for the future development of old age pension systems which would be universally valid for all the countries of the European Union. A single solution cannot take into account the special circumstances obtaining in every nation, and since respect for the special features of national systems is the basis of popular acceptance, the way forward is to reform existing systems in existing contexts.

Book Synopsis Pension Strategies in Europe and the United States by : Robert Fenge
Download or read book Pension Strategies in Europe and the United States written by Robert Fenge and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demographic realities will soon force developed countries to find ways to pay for longer retirements for more people. In Pension Strategies in Europe and the United States, leading economists analyze topical issues in pension policy, with a focus on raising the retirement age, increasing retirement savings, and the political sustainability of reforms that will accomplish these goals. After a substantive and wide-ranging introduction by the editors that weaves together the demographic and economic strands of the story, the chapters present cutting-edge research, offering both theoretical and empirical analyses. Contributors examine such topics as the reform of key structural features of existing pay-as-you-go (PAYG) pension systems, analyzing how benefits should vary with the age of retirement, labor supply elasticity after France's 1993 pension reform, and fiscal response to a demographic shock; the feasibility of PAYG reforms in the United States and the competition among state pension systems that results from labor mobility in Europe; and private, funded systems (increasingly perceived as necessary adjuncts to PAYG systems) in the UK, the US, and the Netherlands, and in terms of individual portfolio management. The editors conclude the volume with a study of recent German and UK reforms and their effects on personal savings.ContributorsTheodore C. Bergstrom, A.

Book Synopsis European Pensions & Global Finance by : Gordon L. Clark
Download or read book European Pensions & Global Finance written by Gordon L. Clark and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2003 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains the demographic and funding crises that threaten continental European systems of pension and retirement income. Based upon examination of pension provision in France, Germany, The Netherlands and the United Kingdom, the book argues that state-sponsored social security will not deliver promised retirement incomes for the baby-boom generation. The author considers the future of pensions and in particular the prospects for a Pan-European approach to retirement income provision.
Book Synopsis The Evolution of Pension Systems in Eastern Europe and Central Asia by : David C. Lindeman
Download or read book The Evolution of Pension Systems in Eastern Europe and Central Asia written by David C. Lindeman and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the early 1990s the transition economy countries of Eastern Europe and Central Asia have had to adapt their pension systems in minor and often very major ways. Some of the changes relate to shrinking contribution bases and the inability of government's to finance prior commitments, while still having to protect the pensioned populations from poverty. Other changes, however, reflect the need to make pension systems more sustainable in light of forthcoming demographic changes. The reforms entail a move away from a single-pillar pay-as-you-go defined benefit systems toward multi-pillar systems that include a funded defined contribution component, and change that convert remaining pay-as-you-go components into ones that are more self sustaining and transparent. The paper describes ongoing developments, assesses the effects of current and forthcoming challenges in light of potential labor market changes, and examines choices for a new pensions system with respect to the organization, administration, guarantees, transition arrangements, participation requirements, role of the government, annuitization, and other factors. The paper concludes that though a 'one-size-fits-all' approach is clearly not appropriate, some practices emerging from the experiences in this region and elsewhere may offer useful guidance to others as they undertake deeper pension reforms.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sustainability of public pension systems has become an important aspect for governments and institutions worldwide.

Supported by the results of econometric empirical studies, the authors discuss and analyse areas like social economy versus capitalist economy, globalization versus glocalization, population aging versus birth and fertility, emigration versus immigration, early retirement versus prolongation versus professional activity, the sustainability of public pension systems versus the adequacy of benefits provided, public pension systems compared to private pension funds and taxation of salary incomes versus subsidization of state social insurance.

Book Synopsis European Pensions and Global Finance by : Gordon L. Clark
Download or read book European Pensions and Global Finance written by Gordon L. Clark and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The retirement of the baby boom generation is a profound threat to the structure and organisation of continental European retirement systems. Whereas the German financial system, for example, has been often favourably compared to the Anglo-American system of corporate governance, it is argued in some quarters that it will have to become far more quot;Americanquot; if current living standards are to be maintained. The paper begins by suggesting that these issues should be taken seriously by economic geographers; we have a distinctive perspective that should not be lost in the more general debate. Subsequently, the paper focuses on three threads or themes. Why the demographic crisis is a crisis not just a transition; why global finance is deeply implicated in any European solution to the demographic crisis, and; whether continental European countries will be able to maintain their inherited retirement income systems in the face of competition from the Anglo-American model. Unfunded social security benefits threaten the economic welfare of all citizens; those that will be retired and those that will continue working over the next 20 to 30 years. Proffered solutions tend to rely upon the market rather than the state, and tend to match or mimic Anglo-American financial practices. This does not mean that continental Europe need converge upon the Anglo-American system of finance and retirement income provision. But it does seem highly likely that continental European countries will seek solutions that draw upon aspects of this system. Rather than thinking of convergence to the Anglo-American model as the most likely outcome, and rather than thinking of continuity of difference between systems as a viable scenario, European countries will in some way or another be forced to seek accommodation with global finance. Whether continental Europe will be able to hold global finance at bay remains to be seen. Global finance may penetrate national economic and social systems far deeper than ever intended.
