The 10-year anniversary edition of Pensions at a Glance highlights the pension reforms undertaken by OECD and G20 countries over the last two years. Two special chapters provide deeper analysis of first-tier pension schemes and of the impact of short or interrupted careers, due to late entry into employment, childcare or unemployment, on pension entitlements. Another chapter analyses the sensitivity of long-term pension replacement rates on various parameters. A range of indicators for comparing pension policies and their outcomes between OECD and G20 countries is also provided.

Incomes of older people

Incomes of older people are on average lower than those of the population, even when differences in household size are taken into account. The incomes of the over 65s had incomes of 87% of the total population’s in 2012-13. The incomes of the people aged between 66 and 75 equalled 92% of the total population’s while the over 75s had income equal to 80% of the total population’s. In most OECD countries, public transfers provide the bulk of income in old age.
