2015 Pension Adequacy Report
|
Rapport (398 pages):
Pensions constitute the main element of income in old age. Their adequacy is primarily measured by their ability to prevent poverty, to replace the earnings people had before retiring and to ensure a living standard on par with younger age groups. This edition of the Pension Adequacy Report looks also into all forms of old age income � public as well as private � for men and women, and seeks to assess the importance of pensions relative to other resources available to older people, including their housing wealth and access to free or subsidised public services.
