Pension adequacy in Europe the theme of our conference in September
The population is ageing in all EU countries. What kind of pensions can you expect to get in Europe? Are the schemes sustainable, both financially and socially? What is the European response to the related challenges?
The conference Pension Adequacy in Europe – Today and Tomorrow, a side event of Finland’s EU presidency, will take place in Helsinki on 17 September 2019. It gathers European experts on pensions and pension policy.
The conference looks at pension adequacy in Europe, from the viewpoint of both research and EU policies. On a more detailed level, the themes include the economic well-being of pensioners and the role of services in their well-being, as well as pensions for the self-employed.
The keynote speakers include one of the most distinguished experts on social indicators, Rudi Van Dam (Chair of the Indicators Subgroup ISG). He calls out for more multi-dimensional indicators to measure pension systems. In the future, more harmonised information is needed to monitor the economic well-being of pensioners and the elderly population.
