Issues in Pension Economics, the third in a series of four projected volumes to result from this study, covers a broad range of pension issues and utilizes new and richer data sources than have been previously available. The papers in this volume cover such issues as the interaction of pension-funding decisions and corporate finances; the role of pensions in providing adequate and secure retirement income, including the integration of pension plans with social security and significant drops in the U.S. saving rate; and the incentive effects of pension plans on labor market behavior and the implications of plans on labor market behavior and the implications of plans for different demographic groups. Issues in Pension Economics offers important empirical studies and makes valuable theoretical contributions to current thinking in an area that will most likely continue to be a source of controversy and debate for some time to come. The volume should prove useful to academics and policymakers, as well as to members of the business and labor communities.National Bureau of Economic Research project report.CorporationsUnited StatesFinanceCongressesPension trustsUnited StatesCongressesPensionsUnited StatesFinanceCongresseseconomy, finance, financial, retirement, workplace, worker, workforce, labor, institution, institutional, influence, influential, united states, usa, america, american, 1980s, research, scholarly, academic, study, data, corporate, income, behavior, demographics, empirical, theoretical, controversy, controversial, congresses, essay collection.CorporationsFinancePension trustsPensionsFinance331.25/2/0973331.2520973Bodie Zvi116594Shoven John B88721Wise David A124389MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910784834203321Issues in pension economics3747170UNINA
