Description

Summary

From the back cover: At current contribution rates, the investment fund of the Canada Pension Plan will be exhausted before the end of the century. At an inflation rate of 8 per cent, the real value of today's private pension will be cut in half every ten years. The implications of these and related problems are explored in this study of public and private pensions in Canada ... This incisive analysis pinpoints the inadequacies of current provisions for retirement income and outlines the direction planning must take if the intentions of pension programs are to be fulfilled. The authors' conclusions have wide-ranging social implications which must be considered by anyone involved or interested in the making of public policy.
