Pension fund assets to GDP (%)

This metric represents the proportion of pension fund assets relative to a country's gross domestic product (GDP), reflecting the financial health and scale of retirement savings within an economy. It encompasses various pension arrangements, including government-sponsored plans, employer-funded schemes, and personal retirement accounts, thereby illustrating the role of collective savings in securing future income for retirees. Data for this analysis is sourced from reputable organizations, including the OECD, AIOS, FIAP, and national financial authorities, ensuring a comprehensive view of how well a nation's pension infrastructure supports its population. A higher ratio may indicate a robust retirement system, while a lower ratio could signal potential reliance on public assistance for aging citizens, highlighting the necessity for policy adjustments or reforms.
