Abstract

The brief's key findings are: (1) The financial crisis stressed the Dutch pension system, as assets dropped below the required 105 percent of liabilities. (2) Automatic indexation adjustments, introduced in recent years, may not be sufficient to restore solvency. (3) Policymakers now have to consider more substantial measures, which affect retirees and workers differently. (4) This process highlights the need to more effectively distribute risk across generations within the pension system.
