DESCRIPTION

The second policy brief 'Pension policy in EU25 and its possible impact on elderly poverty' complements our first policy brief ('Poverty of elderly people in EU25"), as it reviews the most recent changes in pension policies in EU25 and provides a description of how these policy reforms might affect the risk of poverty for future pensioners. The analyses point to key policy responses necessary to meet the social objectives of sustainability as well as adequacy of pensions in the European Union.
