  2. Overview • Socio-economic challenges • Review of existing pension situation in Asia • Way forward • identifying need for reform • contribution of multilateral development banks

  3. I . Socio-economic challenges • Ageing population • Declining family support for elderly people • Globalization

  4. Ageing population • Asian population grew from 1.4 billion people in 1950 to 3.7 billion in 2000 • Demographic transition from high fertility and mortality rates to low fertility and mortality rates

  5. Demographic dividend 4 3 Demographic dividend 2 1

  6. Rapid ageing …

  7. results in increased public spending on pensions If the past relationship between demography and public spending on old-age pensions continue: • Expenditure of national income devoted to pensions in Asia, excluding China, will rise from 2% in 1990 to 10% in 2050 • Expenditure of national income devoted to pensions in China will rise from 3% in 1990 to over 13% in 2050

  8. 2. Declining family support for elderly … • Traditionally, Asian families provide support for the elderly relatives • Increased mobility from rural to urban areas is weakening traditional support • Changing family structure: declining birth rates, increasing number of single head households

  9. needs to be supplemented by formal mechanisms • Pure market solutions (individual savings) work to some extent, but often fail • Shortsighted behavior, leading to insufficient saving when young • Lack of reliable savings instruments • Governments interventions are required • Mandatory pensions plans, means-tested assistance • Regulation and supervision, information, …

  10. 3. Globalization … • Increased integration of markets and growing mobility across the world • Labor market policies need to balance between addressing inequality and efficiency

  11. requires adjusted pension design • Public programs, including pension schemes, will have to be adjusted • Pension designed to accommodate mobility of the labor force, not only between public and private sector, but also across states

  12. II. Pension systems in Asia

  13. Major areas of concern • DB schemes: fiscal sustainability – link between contributions and benefits • Funded schemes: investment policy and performance • Overall: • governance and management of the pension systems • limited coverage

  14. Changing environment for Asian pension systems • New requirements • Increased demand for old-age protection • Increased formalization • Increased flexibility • Existing situation • Limited coverage • Need for improved governance • Need for improved pension design

  15. III. Way forward • Objective: pension systems that deliver adequate and affordable benefits in sustainable way • Reform towards multi-pillar pension systems • A long-term endeavor! * World Bank. 2005. Old-Age Income Support in the Twenty-first Century: An International Perspective on Pension Systems and Reform (Holzmann, R. and others)

  16. Basic goals of pensions • Reducing or preventing poverty among the elderly • Providing adequate retirement income, maintaining same standard of living, smoothing of lifetime consumption • Encourage economic growth through increased saving • These goals can be addressed by a multi-pillar pension system

  17. Multi-pillar pension system

  18. Interaction between pillars Example: Finland

  19. Role of Multilateral Development Banks • Raise awareness among policy makers • Assist in pension reform when support is required • Available tools • TA to prepare reform • Loan programs to assist in implementation

  20. ADB pension projects, 1990–2004

  21. Pension reform needs • Following Asian financial crisis focus on strengthening financial market institutions • Emerging reform needs • sustainability of the maturing pension systems • adequacy and affordability of the pension systems for the ageing population • Pension reform in Asia and Pacific is still at the initial stage
