In its main part, it analyses and suggests policies to deal with the 11 challenges that must be faced in such reforms: the decline in labour force coverage; the growing failure to pay contributions; the faults due to imperfect competition among pension fund management companies; the continuing high level of administrative costs; the accumulation of capital, yet without solid evidence that this has had a positive impact on national saving; the high and prolonged fiscal cost of the transition; the potential development of the capital market but a lack of diversification in the investment portfolio; the variable real returns on investment; the lack of evidence that pensions are higher under the private than under the public system; the accentuation of gender-based inequities, and the erosion of solidarity. / 2014-01-02T18:43:53Z 2014-01-02T18:43:53Z 2004-12 Texto Sección o Parte de un Documento http://hdl.handle.net/11362/11047 LC/G.2258-P en CEPAL Review CEPAL Review 84 application/pdf AMERICA LATINA LATIN AMERICA
