Real-World Shocks and Retirement System Resiliency

By Olivia S. Mitchell, John Sabelhaus & Stephen P. Utkus Growing awareness of real-world shocks including market downturns, health surprises, and labor market readjustment is calling into question the ability of global retirement systems to remain healthy and sustain future retirees.

Pension Policy Preferences: Beliefs about Others

By Carmen Sainz Villalba This paper studies the information provision and belief updating on the preference for regulation on pensions for own respondents and the preference for regulation on pensions for the population as a whole. Following the work of Sainz Villalba and Konrad (2024), we conduct a survey experiment where we provide information on own characteristics and on characteristics about individuals in other income brackets. We find that respondents who overestimate the pension coverage for low income earners are more likely to want less regulation...

Forever young: where older workers keep on working

By Steven G. Allen & Ting Wang This paper examines inter-industry patterns of the employment of older workers over the last 20 years to understand where employment opportunities have grown the most. The underlying premise is that firms strategically align their age mix depending on production function and labor cost parameters. The industries that had the largest increases in the percentage of older workers were those that had the broadest pension coverage and those that made the greatest use of high-tech capital. There...

Panorama fiscal de las pensiones en Colombia

Por Parra-Polania, Julian Llano, Jorge León, Ivan Leonardo & Santiago Urrea Rios  En este documento extendemos el modelo económico usado en Parra et al. (2020) con el fin de incorporar dos grupos significativos que no fueron incluidos en el análisis original: los retirados cuya pensión es igual al salario mínimo y los individuos que no cumplen requisitos de pensión y, por tanto, obtienen una devolución de dinero (en cualquiera de los dos regímenes principales). Los resultados muestran un panorama similar...
