ERSTE Foundation and the Vienna Insurance Group (VIG) share the purpose of creating and securing financial health for all. Together they initiated this study on 11 different European pension systems, their histories, and their performances with the aim of creating a common knowledge base.

This fact-based overview of pension systems in Europe can serve as a starting point for a broad, open and inclusive discussion among all stake holders on how to potentially reform the Austrian pension system towards its best possible version for future generations.

The study was conducted by EcoAustria – Institut for economic research.
