image of Pensions at a Glance 2019

The 2019 edition of Pensions at a Glance highlights the pension reforms undertaken by OECD countries over the last two years. Moreover, two special chapters focus on non-standard work and pensions in OECD countries, take stock of different approaches to organising pensions for non-standard workers in the OECD, discuss why non-standard work raises pension issues and suggest how pension settings could be improved.

This edition also updates information on the key features of pension provision in OECD countries and provides projections of retirement income for today’s workers. It offers indicators covering the design of pension systems, pension entitlements, the demographic and economic context in which pension systems operate, incomes and poverty of older people, the finances of retirement-income systems and private pensions.

Old-age income inequality

According to the latest available figures, the Gini of disposable income for people aged over 65 were very high in Mexico (0.500), Chile (0.441), Korea (0.419) and the United States (0.411). By contrast, the Czech Republic (0.185), the Slovak Republic (0.202), Belgium (0.222), Norway (0.225), Denmark and Finland (both 0.233) as well as the Netherlands (0.235) have the lowest Ginis. Such a range means that there are huge differences in the level of old-age income inequality across OECD countries.
