La reforma de las pensiones de 2013, prácticamente desmantelada por la diseñada por el ministro de Inclusión, Seguridad Social y Migraciones, José Luis Escrivá, pero sobre todo la de 2011, que contemplaba el progresivo aumento de la edad de jubilación hasta los 67 años en 2027 y la ampliación del periodo de cálculo de las prestaciones, empiezan a dejar ver, tras una década de su entrada en vigor, tímidos efectos positivos, con un descenso reseñable de las jubilaciones anticipadas...

UK. Expanding auto-enrolment could cost employers more, experts warn

Proposed legislation expanding auto-enrolment pensions to include thousands more employees, including younger workers and lower earners, could lead to higher costs for employers, experts have warned. A bill was introduced to Parliament yesterday (5 January) that would see the minimum age for auto-enrolment drop from 22 to 18, giving employees an extra four years of savings towards their pensions.

Commentary: China and ESG — a delicate balance

China and sustainable investing are two of the most important growth drivers for the asset management industry. So far, fund managers have pursued these two efforts in splendid isolation, without worrying about how activism at home might affect business in China. We expect this partition of affairs won't be sustainable for much longer. China represents the single most attractive new growth region for asset managers.
