El sistema de pensiones en El Salvador: institucionalidad, gasto público y sostenibilidad financiera

Autor: Mesa-Lago, Carmelo; Rivera, María Elena
Año: 2020
Resumen: En este documento se analizan los desarrollos institucionales necesarios para los sistemas de pensiones y se presenta la experiencia de Chile. Al revisar estos desarrollos se busca asegurar que el desempeño de un sistema de pensiones concilie la lógica de su financiamiento con la de los principios de la seguridad social y garantice que a lo largo de varias generaciones pueda superar los riesgos (captura de los fondos, cambios demográficos, crisis económicas y financieras) frente a los cuales el funcionamiento del sistema es vulnerable. La evidencia que se examina en este trabajo muestra que, en todos los avances, las dimensiones de la institucionalidad no son excluyentes y deben complementarse.

Denmark: Financial Sector Assessment Program-Technical Note-Insurance Regulation and Supervision

Autor: Fondo Monetario Internacional (FMI)
Año: 2020
Resumen: Denmark’s insurance sector is highly developed with a particularly high penetration and density in the life sector. Traditionally, work-related life insurance and pension savings are offered as a combined package, and life insurance companies dominate the market for mandatory pension schemes for employees. The high penetration explains the overall size of the insurance sector, which exceeds those of peers from other Nordic countries and various other EU member states. Assets managed by the insurance industry amounted to 146 percent of the GDP at end-2018, compared to 72 percent for the EU average. […] Increasing the number of on-site inspections, together with completing a solid risk assessment framework are recommended as priority actions to the DFSA—also supervision of cross-border business should be strengthened. Following up on a recommendation from the 2014 FSAP, the number of on-site inspections in the life sector has slightly increased, while in the non-life sector the DFSA falls short of meeting its desired inspection cycle. The nascent risk assessment for individual companies need to be amended by including non-financial risks, in particular governance risks, also building on a regular institutionalized supervisory dialogue with the major insurers’ key control functions. Two smaller non-life insurers, heavily engaged in cross-border business, failed since 2017, related to an insufficient level of reserves and an incorrect assessment of assets. A new supervisory standard is being developed which addresses previous gaps in licensing and supervisory reporting.

Gender-Responsive Age-Sensitive Social Protection

Autor: UNICEF Innocenti Research Centre
Año: 2020
Resumen: This working paper provides a concise narrative behind the graphic representation of the Gender-Responsive Age-Sensitive Social Protection (GRASSP) conceptual framework. The framework delineates the conceptual linkages between gender (including gender risks, vulnerabilities, discrimination and inequalities, multidimensional deprivations affecting women and girls), and social protection. It proposes a systematic, holistic and integrated approach for conceptualising the intersections between gender and social protection, to achieve SDG1 (‘end poverty in all its forms everywhere’) and SDG5 (‘achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls’) through careful planning, design, implementation and evaluation of a gender-responsive social protection system. The GRASSP conceptual framework builds on and expands existing conceptual and theoretical efforts focused on integrating a gender lens into public policy (see for instance Holmes and Jones 2013, GAGE Consortium 2017). Building on these earlier efforts, the GRASSP conceptual framework brings together several integrated aspects related to gender, social protection, and the life course.

A Rapid Review of Economic Policy and Social Protection Responses to Health and Economic Crises and their Effects on Children

Autor: Nyasha Tirivayi; Dominic Richardson; Maja Gavrilovic; Valeria Groppo; Lusajo Kajula; Elsa Valli; Francesca Viola
Año: 2020
Resumen: This rapid review seeks to inform the initial and long-term public policy responses to the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, by assessing evidence on past economic policy and social protection responses to health and economic crises and their effects on children and families. The review focuses on virus outbreaks/emergencies, economic crises and natural disasters, which, like the COVID-19 pandemic, were 'rapid' in onset, had wide-ranging geographical reach, and resulted in disruption of social services and economic sectors, without affecting governance systems. Evidence is also drawn from the HIV/AIDS pandemic, due to its impacts on adult mortality rates and surviving children. The available evidence on the effects of economic policy and social protection responses is uneven across outcomes, regions, and type of policy response as a large body of literature focused on social assistance programmes. Future research on the COVID-19 pandemic can prioritize the voices of children and the marginalized, assess the effects of expansionary and austerity measures, examine the role of design and implementation, social care services, pre-existing macro-level health, demographic and health conditions and the diverse regional health and economic impacts of the pandemic. The paper also provides key lessons for public policy responses to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Año: 2020
Resumen: The Global Integrated Monetary and Fiscal model (GIMF) is a multi-region, forward-looking, DSGE model developed at the International Monetary Fund for policy analysis and international economic research. This paper documents the incorporation of demographic features into the model. The analysis presented illustrates how these new features enable the model to estimate some of the macroeconomic consequences of changing demographics.
