This fact gets obscured by research that paints an optimistic picture of retirement security that only really existed for Early Baby Boomers. Later generations have been impacted by changes to the conditions of retirement that Early Baby Boomers did not experience. This includes: the shift...

Global Aging and Growth: Is There a Silver Dividend?

By Donghyun Park & Kwanho Shin Despite concerns about the economic impact of population aging, this study highlights the potential for a 'silver dividend' as longer lifespans extend working lives. We show that the effects of aging on growth are highly nonlinear and concentrated in more advanced, older economies. Labor shortages are often offset by rising labor force participation, particularly in countries with higher life expectancy, stronger human capital, and greater trade openness. Larger governments, measured by consumption, appear to...

Addressing the Challenges for Asset-backed Pensions in Indonesia

By Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development This report assesses the challenges to ensuring adequate benefits in retirement for the Indonesian population. The design of the asset-backed pension system aims to help individuals to accumulate resources to finance their retirement. However, the rules of the system may not help achieve the desired objectives, appropriate schemes or vehicles may not always be available and individuals may not necessarily make use of those available.

Trabajadores independientes: su inserción en la seguridad social en México

Por María Ascensión Morales Ramírez La informalidad, como resultado de la incapacidad de las economías para generar empleos productivos, así como de los cambios experimentados en el mundo del trabajo y la disrupción de las tecnologías, han generado un aumento de categorías que adoptan la forma de “trabajadores independientes”.
