Description of Event:
The theme of this year's Colloquium is pensions and security: risks
in pension systems and how to secure them. The past decade has
brought broad recognition of the importance of pension systems to the
economic stability of nations and the security of their ageing
populations. As countries around the world grapple with the long-term
affordability of their pensions systems, there are also growing
demographic and economic pressures that are forcing both developing
and developed countries to undertake urgent pension reforms. Most
public pension schemes were not designed to deliver current benefit
levels when confronted with today's major demographic and economic
changes. Therefore, keeping existing systems afloat will require
either cutting public spending on health and education, or cutting
pensions drastically for the next generations of elderly. The
experience with reforms over the past ten years has also shown that
no one size fits all. The Colloquium will review a number of the key
issues which influence the risks and security of pension systems,
from various perspectives. There will be speakers from the World
Bank, the pensions industry, the actuarial profession and the
European Commission.
