11 Reform paradigms: Chile vs. Argentina Extreme arguments related to macroeconomic behaviour: Chilean macro success is related to the privatisation of the pension system vs. Argentina s failure is due to the pension system reform
12 The Successful Case: Chile (1980) From PAYG system (with multiple institutions, mainly public) to Individual Capitalisation run by private managers Mandatory for employees Optional for self-employed workers
13 Chilean Case: Positive Outcomes Retirement age Improvement of actuarial equilibrium Reduction in political pressure
14 Chilean Case: Reduction in Political Pressure Pensions are related to capital market returns Eliminate privilege pensions Reduces demographic change effects Private management of system
15 Chilean Case: Remaining Problems Coverage Fiscal costs of transition Need of social protection programme Weak impact on investment

24 Consolidated Public Expenditure on Pensions Year % of GDP % of Consolidated Public Expenditure % of Public Social Expenditure Source: Grushka (2002).
25 Argentina: System and crisis administration Lack of planning Utilisation of first period surpluses Demagogic responses to first crisis signals Poor management Not fulfilment of legislation
26 Argentina: Design of the system (before 1994) Contributors: 4,1 millions Beneficiaries: 3,2 millions Rate of Dependency: 1.3 Payroll taxes: 26% of wages Rate of Replacement: 70-82%
27 Argentina: Design of the system (before 1994) System financing: 1.3 * 26 = 34% of wages Pension according to Law: 70-82% of wages Expectations: around 60% of wages
28 Argentina: Reform Motivations Fiscal pressures? Fulfilment of Legislation? Need of neo liberal reputation?
29 Argentina: Reform: components of new mixed system Public Component Universal Basic Pension Compensatory Pension Additional Pension per Permanence (PAYGS) Private Component Capitalisation System
30 Argentina: Public Responsibilities During Transition Old System Pensions Compensatory Pension During and after Transition Universal Basic Pension Additional Pension per Permanence

33 Public Expenditures in National Pension System and Financing % of GDP Payroll taxes Other financing
34 Financing Requirements of Pension System (2000) Capitalisation 46% (1,5% of GDP) Payroll taxes 34% (1,7% of GDP) Other financing 66% (3,3% of GDP) Tax reductions 41% (1,3% of GDP) Other 13% (0,4% of GDP)

37 Argentina: Post Crisis Problems Capital Market Crisis: Assets of AFJPs (75% of portfolio in government bonds) Lack of credibility in financial institutions Coverage: Old Age Income Protection Programme
38 Argentine Reform: Coverage on Urban Population (as % of Active Population) 100% 90% Unemployed 80% 70% 60% 50% Informal workers 40% 30% 20% 10% Contributors 0% Source: SAFJP Oct-94 May-95 Oct-95 May-96 Oct-96 May-97 Oct-97 May-98 Oct-98 May-99 Oct-99 May-00 Oct-00 May-01 Oct-01 May-02
39 Concluding Remarks Different cases - different problems: There must not be a single reform recommendation Some systems became exhausted: Need of modernisation, changes in the parameters of the system and improvements of system administration Many systems reached poor coverage (unemployment, informality...) Many systems suffers from political pressures
40 Concluding Remarks Most reform needs are independent of Privatisation, but the introduction of Private Capitalization Schemmes has to be understood as a way of disciplining the system
41 Concluding Remarks Common features of most LA economies: Macroeconomic instability Fiscal Crises Labour Market Problems (Unemployment and Informality) Capital Market Fragility Institutional weaknesses
42 Concluding Remarks The successful case in LA capitalization scheme is a country where reform process has been simultaneous to an unusually high growth rate. Chile does not reflects LA macro behavior, It is an exception. In addition, Chilean reform was done by a military government and the subsequent political transition was exceptionally smooth
43 Concluding Remarks It does not seem that success of Chilean economy during last two decades was due to Pension Reform. But, There are good evidence that pension system reform in Argentina was one of the main causes of macro fiscal crisis in this country
44 Concluding Remarks Due to Macreconomic instability, the future of pension systems in Latin America depends mainly on Macro performance, specially in relation to the possibilities of reach sustaninable growth pattern, full employment, and also the consolidation of capital markets. If it fails, the main problem is to increase Tax Burden in order to finance social benefits for ageing population (and others)
45 Concluding Remarks Need for adequate combination of: Public PAYG system Private Capitalisation Scheme Public Social Protection Programme
