1 Attitudes toward the Role of the Family, the Individual, and the State in Retirement Provision Survey Evidence from East Asia Richard Jackson Center for Strategic and International Studies OAP/FAD Conference on: Designing Fiscally Sustainable and Equitable Pension Systems in Asia in the Post Crisis World Tokyo January 9, 2013 GAPINDEX.CSIS.ORG/ASIA
2 CSIS East Asia Retirement Survey CSIS conducted a survey of retirement behavior and expectations in China, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan. The survey was based on nationally representative samples in all countries except China, where the sample was limited to urban residents. The survey universe consists of main earners aged 20 and over and includes both current main earners and retired main earners. Respondents were asked about their general attitudes toward retirement, as well as about their own retirement experience and expectations. Current retirees were asked about their current retirement experience, while current workers were asked about their expectations for retirement. 2
3 Attitudes toward Retirement Provision 3
4 Only small minorities believe that the extended family should have responsibility for retirement income. "Who, ideally, should be mostly responsible for providing income to retirees? Share of Respondents Saying Grown Children or Other Family Members. China 4% South Korea 5% Taiwan 7% Hong Kong 12% Malaysia 14% Singapore 22% 0% 5% 10% 15% 20% 25% 4
5 Declining family size may be one reason for low support for family responsibility for retirement income. Share of Respondents Aged Who Neither Have Nor Expect to Have Children China 8% Malaysia 20% Singapore 26% Taiwan 28% South Korea 31% Hong Kong 48% 0% 10% 20% 50% 5
6 More individualistic western values are also beginning to compete with traditional Asian values. Share of Respondents Saying Both Parents and Children Would Be Happier If They Were More Independent and Self-Sufficient Singapore 20% Malaysia Hong Kong China 36% South Korea 52% Taiwan 56% 0% 10% 20% 50% 60% 6
7 In most countries, there is strong support for individual savings-based responsibility for retirement income. "Who, ideally, should be mostly responsible for providing income to retirees?" Share of Respondents Saying "Retirees Themselves, through Their Own Savings" versus Share Saying "Government" or "Grown Children of Retirees or Other Family Members" 70% 60% 53% Retirees Themselves Government Grown Children or Other Family Members 63% 50% 45% 31% 36% 37% 32% 31% 39% 22% 20% 10% 5% 7% 12% 14% 9% 4% 0% South Korea Taiwan Hong Kong Singapore Malaysia China 7
8 When asked to choose between individual and family responsibility, respondents favor individual responsibility. "If retirees do not receive any income from government or former employers, who, ideally, should be mostly responsible for providing them with income?" Share of Respondents Saying "Grown Children of Retirees or Other Family Members" versus Share Saying "Retirees Themselves, through Their Own Savings" 90% 80% 70% Grown Children or Other Family Members Retirees Themselves 72% 78% 60% 50% 45% 50% 56% 58% 34% 38% 31% 38% 23% 20% 16% 10% 0% China Singapore Hong Kong Malaysia Taiwan South Korea 8
9 Support for family responsibility for personal care for the frail elderly also appears to be weakening. "Who, ideally, should be mostly responsible for providing personal care to retirees when they need help with everyday living or are sick or disabled?" Malaysia Singapore China 11% 25% 31% 29% 29% 32% 29% 37% 42% Grown Children of Retirees or Other Family Members Retirees Themselves, by Paying for Caregivers Government, by Paying for Caregivers Taiwan 23% 24% 47% Hong Kong 16% 29% 48% South Korea 14% 23% 54% 0% 10% 20% 50% 60% 9

15 Most respondents have flexible attitudes toward work and retirement: Only small minorities believe that people should retire at a fixed age and not work again.
