Could Denmark, the Netherlands and Sweden abandon pay-as-you-go pensions?
Original: The Danes, the Dutch, the Swedes and the feasibility of walking away from pay-as-you-go pensions
Bruegel, the Brussels-based economics think tank, has published an analysis asking whether Denmark, the Netherlands and Sweden could feasibly move away from pay-as-you-go pension systems. The piece examines how these three northern European countries fund retirement benefits and what shifting to other models would mean for workers and public finances. It is prompting debate among policy specialists about the future of pension funding across Europe.
Why now: Pension sustainability is under scrutiny as European populations age and public finances come under pressure.
