We use rich administrative data on (pension) wealth and income combined for the first time to supervisory data of pension funds. Our results show a displacement effect of −37% for wage employed and of −61% to −77% for self-employed people. The higher displacement effect we find for the self-employed might be explained by the fact that self-employed workers are arguably more aware of their pension accrual, or lack thereof, because there is no employer who organizes and (partly) pays this for them.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45848,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Economics of Ageing","volume":"26 ","pages":"Article 100473"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44382836","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using longitudinal data from the German Socio-Economic Panel, and applying fixed-effects ordered logit models, I find that the benchmark replacement rate decreases with income.

Using data from the Spanish Public Employment Service and the recipients aged 55–57 as a control group, we find that the probability of exiting from unemployment to a job for treated individuals who stopped having access to those benefits after the policy change took place increased substantially, thus reducing the expected duration of benefits recipiency.

In this paper we examine both phenomena using the delay in retirement age as a nexus. Although automation is freeing workers from repetitive, hard work, older workers feel threatened by new automation advances which generate skill mismatches. Two links are highlighted: First, since skill mismatches affect low-skilled older workers more than those who are highly skilled, the latter will remain active for a longer period of time while the former will be pushed to retire. Second, the highly skilled workers who decide to prolong their working lives are a valuable resource for further automation advances because this technology continues to need human-assisted solutions. Our analysis establishes an important role for adult training to fill the gap between initial education and the demands of a rapidly changing labor market in order to encourage individuals to postpone their retirement and, hence, to ensure the sustainability of the social insurance system.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45848,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Economics of Ageing","volume":"26 ","pages":"Article 100476"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50192297","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Studies suggest that reducing the replacement rate and increasing the retirement age provide higher welfare for future generations. However, these studies often assume constant risk aversion (CRA), which contradicts the empirical evidence that suggests risk aversion tends to increase with age. To provide a more comprehensive understanding of risk aversion, life-cycle behavior, and welfare under uncertainties, this study integrates age-dependent increasing risk aversion (IRA) into an overlapping generations model with risk-sensitive preferences. The quantitative analysis shows that individuals who exhibit IRA tend to adjust hours worked to reduce income risk and accumulate more precautionary savings to ensure future consumption. However, reducing uncertainty consumes resources that could otherwise have been used to increase overall consumption and leisure. Individuals who expect to become more risk averse in old age may prefer an increase in the payroll tax rate over the other two options, as the latter would result in relatively higher uncertainty.</span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":45848,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Economics of Ageing","volume":"26 ","pages":"Article 100474"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50192310","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
