Greece. Is this a country for young people?

“Life can only be understood by looking back,” Danish philosopher Soren Kierkegaard once wrote, and looking back on my own life I realize how lucky my generation was, growing up in the 1970s and 80s to have lived in a more peaceful, safer, and more optimistic era than the present. On the contrary, our children’s generation will have to live in a much bleaker world: with wars on our doorstep, the specter of irreversible climate catastrophe looming, and the...

El pedido por aprobar el octavo retiro AFP ha entrado en una nueva fase.

In this blog, we reflect on what’s happening to longevity – and what it means for pensions and insurance. By Ben...

Wildfires, floods and other severe weather events are not going away, they are only becoming more common, part of what scientists have been warning for decades.

En el Paquete Económico 2026 , Hacienda aumentará un 5.2% el dinero que se va a pensiones contributivas y universales, lo que a decir de los expertos, aumenta la necesidad de llevar a cabo una reforma fiscal que le permita mantener ese nivel de gasto. Iván Arias, director de estudios económicos de Banamex, dijo en entrevista que la carga tributaria más pesada que tendrá el gobierno es entre 2030 y 2035 ante los jubilados por la Ley...
