“…the old age pensions he called for
came to be financed with wage based
taxes was an accident.”

Summary and looking forward
For a century, public DB plans spread across the globe and dominated pension provision but…
Unfunded liabilities are catching up with maturing systems as the demographic transition unfolds resulting in cuts
In the last two decades, prefunding and especially DC plans has taken on greater role raising new issues of costs, investments, payouts and supervision
Coverage has emerged as the key issue for most low and middle income countries with policy discussion centered on the potential role of social pensions and innovative ways of incorporating the informal sector workforce
What will younger countries learn from the experience of the older countries?
