This practical new title adopts a standard format for each chapter, aiding comparison, and examines the main areas of pension law in a country-by-country analysis. The chapters have been written by experts from each country.
This timely book provides a comprehensive overview of European pension law with a dual purpose: both to introduce the legal aspects of different forms of pension at the European level, as well as to explore the main legal policy issues.
EU pension law is a relatively new and rapidly growing field. The call for a broader practical understanding of EU pension law is growing, as pension markets are increasingly internationalized. The handbook EU Pension Law discusses the most important financial EU legislation (IORP and PEPP) and non-financial legislation (such as the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union) and its consequences for pensions. The book contains a collection of relevant articles and offers necessary basic knowledge. More importantly, it contains interesting practical cases, creating a unique bridge between theory and practice. Whether you are a student, a committed policymaker, an experienced market practitioner, or someone interested in European pension developments, EU Pension Law is designed for you.
The Future of Pension Plans in the EU Internal Market by Nazaré da Costa Cabral,Nuno Cunha Rodrigues Pdf
This edited volume takes a closer look at various European pension-plan models and the recent challenges, trends and predictions related to the design of such schemes. The contributors analyse new ideas, both from national governments and European institutions, and consider current debates on topics such as the Capital Markets Union (CMU) and the so-called ‘European Pillar of Social Rights’ – calling for a new approach to social policy at the European level in response to common challenges, such as ageing and the digital revolution.This interdisciplinary work embraces economic, financial and legal perspectives, while focusing on previously selected coherence aspects in order to ensure that the analyses are comprehensive and globally consistent.
European pension law is a topic that does not always receive the attention it deserves. For many years, the European Union has made efforts to bring the benefits of the EU single market to the realm of occupational pensions with some remarkable successes. However, some aspects of the EU's pension law and policy remain incomplete for a number of reasons. This book studies European (occupational) pension law from the perspective of a pension scheme member by looking at the prerogatives of the EU in the field of occupational pensions and the history of its involvement with the topic. It then assesses the results of those efforts from a pension scheme member's point of view. It does this not just by examining legislation such as the IORP II Directive or the Supplementary Pension Rights Directive, but also Commission Communications, the legislative processes leading up to adopted legislation and failed attempts at legislation. Finally, it studies the recent PEPP Regulation - a personal pension product that could offer lessons for EU occupational pension law.
This book gives information about the impact, in practical terms, of European Community legislation on pension schemes in the UK. It is a handbook that uses the looseleaf format to provide current information, covering cross-border investment of pension funds to comply with regulation and other issues such as the status of part-timers in pension schemes, Pan European pension schemes and the need for equalization of retirement. A minimum of two yearly updates are included.

The Role of the State in Pension Provision: Employer, Regulator, Provider by Gerard Hughes,Jim Stewart Pdf
This book deals with the role of the State in pension provision as an employer, regulator and provider. Part I deals with problems and reforms of public sector pension systems in OECD countries. The countries covered are Denmark, Finland, Germany, The Netherlands, Norway, and the USA. Part II considers the regulation of occupational pension schemes in The Netherlands and the United Kingdom, and whether there is still a role for the State in providing earnings-related pensions in the United Kingdom. Part III presents demographic projections for the next half-century, using Ireland as an example, looks at some of the options which have been used in Finland, and proposed in the United States, to cope with population ageing, and examines issues of intergenerational equity which are posed by these options. All the chapters deal with recent reforms. The chapters are written by acknowledged experts in their field who are independent of both the pensions industry and Government. Hence the chapters provide an informed critical account of current developments in relation to the reform of occupational pension schemes in the public sector and of the debate about the State's role as a regulator of private pension schemes and a provider of pensions based on the social insurance principal. The book is important as a source of information about pension schemes in OECD countries. It shows that there is not a unique model of occupational pension provision for public sector employees and that the pension benefits which are provided in different countries are quite variable. It also shows that public sector occupational pension systems have changed and are in the process of considerable further change in a number of OECD countries.
