Description: Providing appropriate financial security for retirement is an issue of crucial importance to OECD Member and non-member countries alike. The approaches adopted to implement the necessary reforms vary depending on each country’s economic, social and demographic environment. Increasingly, however, reform programmes involve the establishment or extension of private pension arrangements -- the focus of attention of the International Network of Pension Regulators and Supervisors (INPRS), a group of over 130 regulatory and supervisory authorities representing more than 60 countries. In April 2001, the INPRS and the OECD (which provides the Secretariat for the Network) brought together policy makers and experts to analyse the key policy implications arising from the growth of private pensions. This volume contains a selection of the papers presented at that meeting.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references.
Selected papers from the first Conference of the International Network of Pensions Regulators and Supervisors (INPRS) held on 23-26 April 2001 in Sofia, Burgaria.
"This first INPRS Conference, organised under the aegis of the OECD Centre for Co-operation with Non-members, was hosted by the Ministry of Labour and Social Policy of Bulgaria, and sponsored by the OECD, USAID, the East-West Management Institute and Watson Wyatt"--P. 3.
