Pension Markets In Focus 2022
Pension Markets in Focus provides detailed and comparable statistics on retirement savings around the world. This annual statistical report contributes to the effort of making data on retirement savings available, as the OECD Core Principles of Private Pension Regulation advocates for, to enable regulators and stakeholders to evaluate the design and operation of pension systems relative to their goals. These statistics can support policy discussions through international comparisons and peer learning, and are the basis of policy recommendations in the OECD series of Pension Reviews. These statistics can also be helpful to private sector representatives, journalists, academics and anyone interested in funded pension systems. This edition of the annual report provides an overview of retirement savings in around 90 jurisdictions and outlines the developments in the pension sector worldwide. The report exhibits an extensive range of indicators relevant to retirement savings, up to 2021, harmonised and standardised across jurisdictions. It monitors the key financial aspects, such as the amount of assets accumulated, the way these assets are invested and their investment performance, both over the past year and over the longer term, based on 20 years of data. The report also examines the proportion of the population covered by pension plans, the amount of contributions paid into these plans and the benefits that members receive at retirement. It shows the prominence and some specificities of the different pension plans that exist, in particular defined benefit and defined contribution pension plans.
