The Spanish Social Security: Prospects of the Pension and Health-Care Systems
Autor: Ferreira Levy, Joaquim Vieira
Año: 1995
Resumen: The social security system in Spain has steadily expanded since the late 1970s. Currently, social security expenditure exceeds 15 percent of GDP, being a factor of fiscal imbalance. This paper reviews achievements and the current situation of the social security system, discusses changes in the financing of health-care expenditure in view of the need for fiscal consolidation by the general government, and analyzes the scope for a partial prefunding of future liabilities of the pension system.

Challenges to the Swedish Welfare State
Autor: Lachma, Desmond; Ramaswamy, Ramana; Green, John. H.; Hagemann, Robert P.; Bennett, Adam
Año: 1995
Resumen: Sweden's economy in the early 1990s has been characterized by a deep recession, high unemployment, a ballooning public sector budgete deficit, and a decline in the value of the currency- developments that have raised questions about the country's capacity to sustain its comprehensive welfare state. This study provides an analysis of recent economic developments in a longer-term context and assesses their implications for future policies.

Pensions, Price Shocks, and Macroeconomic Stability in Transition Economies: Illustrations From Belarus
Autor: Lugaresi, Sergio; Ahmad, Ehtisham; Schneider, Jean-Luc; Mourmouras, Alex
Año: 1994
Resumen: In many countries of the former Soviet Union, pensioners form a large and vulnerable group of the population, with pensions fixed in nominal terms. Attempts to "protect11 this group have included a revaluation of benefits for retirees and the introduction of indexation arrangements based on recent wage and price growth. In this paper, lagged indexation arrangements are shown to have large destabilizing effects that can potentially jeopardize the macroeconomic adjustment effort, particularly as inflation begins to decelerate. Some long-term problems relating to the aging of the population and associated policies are also discussed. Illustrative examples from Belarus are presented.

Poland: The Social Safety Net During the Transition
Autor: Maret, Xavier; Schwartz, Gerd
Año: 1993
Resumen: This paper argues that the brunt of the reform-induced increase in Polish social expenditures has been borne by social insurance arrangements (mainly pensions and unemployment compensation) rather than by social assistance schemes targeted to the poor or more temporary social safety net schemes. This is largely due to ease of access to social security and its more attractive benefit structure. Much of recent social expenditure reform had an ad-hoc nature and was driven by the need to alleviate looming financial, distress. A major policy challenge is to avoid a further burdening of social security by needs that should be addressed by basic income support and emergency assistance policies or by general transfers (e.g., family allowances). Current reform needs are illustrated by using unemployment benefits and pensions as examples.

Pension reform in developing countries
Autor: Iyer, Subramaniam
Año: 1993
Resumen: The purpose of this article is to survey the status of institutionalized pension schemes, with specific reference to developing countries. This spans a huge range extending from countries such as St. Kitts (population 40,000) to China (population, over 1 billion); and from States such as Mozambique (per capita GNP, US$80) to the United Arab Emirates (per capita GNP, US$19,860).1 However, all these countries share one common characteristic: a low state of social security development relative to the industrialized countries
