Abstract

Este informe aclara y actualiza la perspectiva del Banco Mundial acerca de la reforma de pensiones, incorporando las lecciones aprendidas de la experiencia reciente y de la investigacion, las cuales han permitido avanzar en la comprension acerca de la mejor manera de proceder en el futuro. El documento ha sido desarrollado como una nota de politica, no como un documento de investigacion. Como tal, mas que presentar nuevos resultados de investigacion o de dar a conocer un nuevo enfoque, se intenta conceptualizar y explicar el pensamiento de la politica actual en el Banco. Esta presentacion de politicas y de prioridades esta destinada a ayudar, a los clientes del Banco y al publico internacional en general, a entender y a apreciar el marco del pensamiento del Banco en cuanto a las reformas de pensiones. De igual forma, busca facilitar la capacidad del Banco para trabajar efectivamente con los paises clientes en enfrentar los retos que se avecinan. El informe contiene dos secciones principales. La primera seccion presenta el marco de pensamiento del Banco acerca de las reformas de pensiones, incluyendo sus origenes y su alcance, y la estructura prestataria del Banco en esta area. La segunda parte destaca elementos clave de diseno y de implementacion.

Abstract

"The forces driving the first decades of the 21st century--globalization, technology, and unprecedented wealth mixed with jarring economic instability--are pushing the day of retirement later and later in life. The era of the aging worker is here. From the rice paddies of Japan to the heart of the American rust-belt, veteran international correspondent Joseph Coleman takes readers inside the lives of aging workers, exploring the factories, offices, and fields where they toil and the societies in which they live, giving the reader a front-row seat to the global older worker revolution. Profiles of individuals bring to life Coleman's exploration of how the United States--along with many countries around the world--deal with the rise of aging workforces. Throughout these stories, the author gives advice on how societies can best benefit from and assist their increasingly older population. Readers will come to know: --Michel Wattree, a retired French trucker who has found a second life as an elementary school bus driver and still nurses dreams of driving America's storied Route 66. --The aging crew of Japan's Yamashita Kogyosho, where for half a century they have crafted the world's fastest trains with their bare hands and hammers, exemplifies Japan's adaptive employment strategies that have helped the country deal with one of the oldest demographic compositions in the world. --Rita Hall, an unemployed hospital worker from Akron, Ohio, who hopes that a job training program will save her from spending the rest of her golden years in poverty-a fear shared by many who will far outlive their retirement savings. Amidst the stories of how these works are working hard to adapt, Unfinished Work probes the struggles of companies either unable or unwilling to accommodate the aging of their workforces and the quandaries of governments and policymakers eager to control pension pay-outs to retiring boomers, yet unsure how to keep them on the job. What emerges is a compassionate but clear-eyed portrait of a world in the midst of a slow-motion aging revolution that will have vast consequences for present and coming generations"--

Abstract

Latin America and the Caribbean will soon face the challenges of an aging population. This process, which took over a century in the rich world, will occur in two or three decades in the developing world; seven of the 25 countries that will age more rapidly are in LAC. Population aging will pose challenges and offer opportunities. This book explores three sets of issues. First is a group of issues related to the support of the aging and poverty in the life cycle. This covers questions of work and retirement, income and wealth, and living arrangements and intergenerational transfers. It also ex

Abstract

This report was prepared at the request of the Philippines Social Security System (SSS) to analyze key challenges and propose reform options to improve the sustainability and expand the coverage of old age income protection for private sector workers. A simulation employing the Pension Reform Options Simulation Toolkit (PROST) found that the SSS scheme will face outflows greater than inflows in about 20 years and depletion of its assets in about 28 years. Fortunately, its medium-term financing issues can be addressed through the gradual introduction of parametric reforms that shield workers and retirees from abrupt changes in contributions and benefits. At the same time, the Philippines faces a challenge to improve the defacto coverage of workers by Social Security, and to increase the income protection coverage of the elderly. Options suggested include SSS measures to leverage its identification system and introduce a special instrument for informal workers. Rather than introducing matching contribution subsidies to expand coverage, it was suggested to broaden the scope of beneficiaries eligible for social pensions. Beyond the scope of the SSS, additional measures were suggested including those to improve the access and efficiency of contributions and payments systems, strengthening mobile-money platforms and efforts to improve access to savings instruments, particularly for small and isolated savers. The report points out that the key means of improving coverage lies beyond the scope of social security or pensions, namely, to improve the quantity and quality of wage-based employment.

Abstract

La main-d’œuvre du secteur public vieillit encore plus rapidement que le reste de la société. Ceci est une source de défis et d’opportunités. Le vieillissement du secteur public accroît la charge fiscale tout en diminuant la capacité immédiate de prestation de service. Toutefois, ce processus constitue à long terme une opportunité stratégique de réduire les effectifs du secteur public en fonction des besoins, et de modifier les conditions d'emploi et la gestion des agents publics si nécessaire. Cette publication examine l'expérience de neuf pays membres de l’OCDE dans ce domaine. Elle présente des conclusions à propos des stratégies à mener pour adapter les politiques de ressources humaines au défi plus large que constitue le processus de vieillissement de la population.

Abstract

National Transfer Accounts (NTA) provides a coherent accounting framework of economic flows from one age group or generation to another, typically for a national population in a given calendar year. This manual consolidates and presents in a systematic fashion the concepts, the methods and estimation procedures to measure these flows of resources across age. The NTA estimates are useful to understand and analyse inter-generational economic flows, and the implications of changing population age structures for the fiscal sustainability of social programs, the accumulation of physical and human capital, macroeconomic growth, and familial support for children, youth and older persons.
