Excerpt from Improving Income Security for Older Women in Retirement: Current Issues and Legislative Reform Proposals: Forum Before the Special Committee on Aging, United States Senate, One Hundred Third Congress, First Session; Washington, DC; September 23, 1993; Serial No. 103-13 In September 1993, the National Eldercare Institute on Older Women and the National Council of Negro Women held a Con ference on the needs of older women. In conjunction with this Con ference, the Senate Special Committee on Aging hosted this Forum on improving income security for older women in retirement. In many ways, aging is a women's issue. Not only do women make up a large majority of the older population, but they also comprise the vast amount of caregivers for our Nation's elderly. Moreover, elderly women compose 75 percent of the nursing home population, are almost three times as likely as men to be widowed, and experience poverty rates twice as high as elderly men. These health and socio-economic characteristics of older women make gender an important factor in determining the life course of the majority of America's elderly. Therefore, an understanding of the special needs and characteristics of older women is imperative if we are to be successful in developing meaningful policy for our elderly population as a whole. This Forum on improving income security for older women in re tirement provides an opportunity for policymakers to examine a wide array of issues including - income and the older, single woman; income variations among racial and ethnic groups; gaps in income protection for older women in retirement; and legislative proposals to reform the Social Security and pensions systems. The Forum brought together an outstanding panel of experts to discuss these issues and make recommendations. We hope that you find this Committee print helpful and we thank the National Eldercare Institute on Older Women and the National Council of Negro Women for all of their help in making this Forum a success.

Elderly women, who comprise a growing portion of the U.S. population, have historically been at greater risk of living in poverty than elderly men. Several factors contribute to the higher rate of poverty among elderly women including their tendency to have lower lifetime earnings, their taking time out of the workforce to care for family members, and outliving their spouses. Other factors affecting older women's financial insecurity include the economic downturn and changing trends in pension plan offerings. This book examines how women's access to and participation in employer-sponsored retirement plans compare to men's and how they have changed over time; how women's retirement income compares to men's and how the composition of their income the proportion of income coming from different sources - has changed with the economic conditions and trends in pension design; and what policy options are available to help increase women's retirement income security.

" Elderly women, who comprise a growing portion of the U.S. population, have historically been at greater risk of living in poverty than elderly men. Several factors contribute to the higher rate of poverty among elderly women including their tendency to have lower lifetime earnings, take time out of the workforce to care for family members, and outlive their spouses. Other factors could affect older women's financial insecurity. These include the economic downturn and changing trends in pension plan offerings. In light of these circumstances, GAO was asked to examine (1) how women's access to and participation in employer-sponsored retirement plans compare to men's and how they have changed over time, (2) how women's retirement income compares to men's and how the composition of their income-the proportion of income coming from different sources-changed with economic conditions and trends in pension design, (3) how later-in-life events affect women's retirement income security, and (4) what policy options are available to help increase women's retirement income security. To answer these questions, GAO analyzed data from two nationally representative surveys, conducted a broad literature review, and interviewed a range of experts in the area of retirement security. GAO is making no recommendations. GAO received technical comments on a draft of this report from the Department of Labor, the Department of the Treasury and the Social Security"

Aging is a process that encompasses virtually all aspects of life. Because the speed of population aging is accelerating, and because the data needed to study the aging process are complex and expensive to obtain, it is imperative that countries coordinate their research efforts to reap the most benefits from this important information. Preparing for an Aging World looks at the behavioral and socioeconomic aspects of aging, and focuses on work, retirement, and pensions; wealth and savings behavior; health and disability; intergenerational transfers; and concepts of well-being. It makes recommendations for a collection of new, cross-national data on aging populationsâ€"data that will allow nations to develop policies and programs for addressing the major shifts in population age structure now occurring. These efforts, if made internationally, would advance our understanding of the aging process around the world.

The United States is in the midst of a major demographic shift. In the coming decades, people aged 65 and over will make up an increasingly large percentage of the population: The ratio of people aged 65+ to people aged 20-64 will rise by 80%. This shift is happening for two reasons: people are living longer, and many couples are choosing to have fewer children and to have those children somewhat later in life. The resulting demographic shift will present the nation with economic challenges, both to absorb the costs and to leverage the benefits of an aging population. Aging and the Macroeconomy: Long-Term Implications of an Older Population presents the fundamental factors driving the aging of the U.S. population, as well as its societal implications and likely long-term macroeconomic effects in a global context. The report finds that, while population aging does not pose an insurmountable challenge to the nation, it is imperative that sensible policies are implemented soon to allow companies and households to respond. It offers four practical approaches for preparing resources to support the future consumption of households and for adapting to the new economic landscape.
