Summary (English)

This report focussed on the adequacy dimensions of pensions has been developed by the Social Protection Committee (SPC) as a complement to the Ageing Report by the Economic Policy Committee (EPC) which primarily deals with sustainability aspects of pensions from a public budget perspective. For the purpose of this analysis the SPC has mobilised and applied the instruments and knowledge it has developed through more than a decade of investments in indicators and analysis thanks to the work of its Indicator Subgroup. The initial scoping and
elaboration of the report has been handled by a Working Group on Ageing Issues under the SPC.
