Book excerpt: In 2017, the Royal Government of Cambodia published a new Social Protection Policy Framework (SPPF), providing an ambitious vision for a social protection system in which a comprehensive set of policies and institutions operate in sync with each other to sustainably reduce poverty and vulnerability.The Social Protection System Review of Cambodia prompts and answers a series of questions that are crucial for the implementation ofthe framework : How will emerging trends affect the needs for social protection, now and into the future? To what extent are Cambodia's social protection instruments able - or likely - to address current and future livelihood challenges? How does fiscal policy affect social protection objectives? This review provides a contribution to the ongoing policy dialogue on social protection, sustainable growth and poverty reduction. It includes four chapters. Chapter 1 is a forward-looking assessment of Cambodia's social protection needs. Chapter 2 maps the social protection sector and examines its adequacy. An investigation of the distributive impact of social protection and tax policy is undertaken in Chapter 3. The last chapter concludes with recommendations for policy strategies that could support the establishment of an inclusive social protection system in Cambodia, as envisaged by the SPPF.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indonesia has made impressive progress in reducing income inequality and improving living standards since the Asian Financial Crisis but the decline in poverty has slowed in recent years while inequality has risen and a large part of the population remains vulnerable. The Government of Indonesia has recognised the potential of social protection to address these challenges and to underpin a long-term development strategy based on more inclusive economic growth. As a consequence, social assistance programmes have grown significantly in recent years while social insurance has undergone major reforms. The Government is gradually realising its vision of a system of social protection, based on comprehensive and coherent coverage for all age groups.The Social Protection System Review of Indonesia charts the evolution of social protection. It explores the current context for social protection and how this is likely to evolve in the future, analyses the extent to which existing programmes are aligned to those needs and how effective these programmes are at reducing poverty. It also examines the financing of social protection. Finally, it proposes policies to enhance the social protection system across a number of dimensions, including programmes, institutions, financing and information architecture.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The positive impacts of social protection on reducing poverty and inequality and contributing to development are well evidenced. Establishing an integrated system facilitates the provision of a social protection floor, whereby individuals are appropriately protected throughout the life cycle. This is achieved not only by making sure there is a sufficient range of programmes to cover a population's risk profile but also by sharing information on different individuals to ensure they are linked to an appropriate programme. The Social Protection System Review is one of a small number of tools that serve to analyse how effective a country is in establishing a social protection system that responds to the needs of its people both today and in the future. The toolkit presents methodologies which can be implemented in any country, at any income level and by any institution. It is intended to generate policy recommendations that are actionable through national systems.

Download or read book Realizing the Promise of Social Assistance written by Claudia Zambra and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Cambodia has become one of the world's leaders in poverty reduction, two-thirds of its population remains poor or economically vulnerable, with a large number of households moving in and out of poverty. Cambodian households are exposed to a range of shocks that can have devastating costs for the poor and vulnerable. Negative coping strategies to manage shocks can put poor or economically insecure households at risk of a return to or deepened poverty. Formal social protection in Cambodia is only incipient, with low levels of spending compared to other countries, particularly for social assistance. Most social protection spending in Cambodia goes toward retirement benefits for civil servants through the National Social Security Fund for Civil Servants (NSSF-C) and the National Fund for Veterans (NFV), neither of which have been contributory to date and are thus entirely funded through general revenues. Social assistance spending is much lower and comprises several small, fragmented programs. The Government has recently signaled its willingness to scale up social assistance through its approval of the National Social Protection Policy Framework (NSPPF), which lays out ambitious reforms. The NSPPF, approved in 2017, provides the framework for an integrated social protection system. Guidance will be provided by a National Social Protection Council (NSPC) under the overall direction of the Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF), with distinct sub-bodies for social insurance and social assistance. This note presents policy options for ensuring the feasibility of the institutional and programmatic rollout of social assistance reforms envisaged in the NSPPF. To realize the goals of the NSPPF, a clear vision on prioritization and sequencing of SA reforms will be critical. The path from incipient and fragmented social assistance systems is one that has been trodden by many developing countries in recent years, and those experiences can provide important lessons for Cambodia in this process. This policy note draws from these lessons while taking into account Cambodia's ongoing social assistance programs, institutional frameworks, and delivery systems. It utilizes the World Bank's ASPIRE database, program documents, an assessment of Cambodia's social assistance programs in the OECD's 2017 Social Protection System Review of Cambodia, and country data.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Having achieved robust economic growth and remarkable macroeconomic stability over the past 15 years, Paraguay has set a course to become not only more prosperous, but also more inclusive by 2030. To deliver on its development ambition, the country will have to overcome a number of crosscutting constraints that limit progress towards widely shared improvements in citizen well-being, as identified in Volume 1 of the review. Putting Paraguay on a more inclusive development path requires co-ordinated actions to increase the capacity of the state to redistribute, to improve the delivery of public services, and to break the persistence of poverty and inequality across generations. This report discusses policy actions and priorities in three critical areas to make Paraguay’s development more inclusive. It presents in-depth analysis and recommendations to improve the effectiveness of social protection, the delivery of health services, and the formation of skills for all Paraguayans.

Download or read book Financial Literacy and Ageing in Developing Economies written by Kshipra Jain and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-09 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book weaves together current understanding around financial literacy and ageing, arguing for the relevance of financial literacy for old age security. Building upon on the experiences of ten developing Asian economies with a focus on India, the book enters new territory by developing frameworks that identify predictors of financial literacy and a mechanism for its internalization, as well as recognising the need for specialized training programs for the older population in order to establish a link between financial literacy and old age security. It thus makes a case about the centrality of financial literacy in creating an environment conducive to a dignified ageing experience in this world of shouldering one’s own responsibility. Going forward, the book comprehends financial literacy for India as a skill which enables an individual to decide the suitable avenues to invest savings, utilize monetary resources and shape financial decisions aligned with their financial goals, in accordance with the dynamic financial & economic environment. This original volume is a first-time attempt to provide an in-depth account of financial literacy and its association with savings behavior, old age planning, wealth accumulation, healthcare and wellbeing in older age. It also provides a detailed account of various measurement tools used and policy initiatives undertaken across the globe for financial literacy. It is an indispensable reference guide for scholars and researchers, cutting across multiple disciplines particularly financial and development economics, gerontology, demography, social work, psychology and public policy.
