Download or read book Pension Design and Structure written by Olivia S. Mitchell and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2004-07-15 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Employees are increasingly asked to make sophisticated decisions about their pension and healthcare plans. Yet recent research shows that the decisions 'real' people make are often not those of the careful and well-informed economic agent conventionally portrayed in economic research. Rather, decision-makers tend to operate with flawed information and make some of the most critical financial decisions of their lives lacking a full understanding of the options before them and theimplications of their decisions.Pension Design and Structure explores the assumptions behind commonly-held theories of retirement decision-making, in order to draw out the consequences of frontier research in behavioral finance and economics for those interested in better design and structure of retirement pensions. Using large datasets newly provided by financial service firms and real-world experiments, this volume tests the hypotheses of this research.This is the first book to explore the implications of behavioral finance research for pensions and retirement studies. The authors blend cutting-edge research from several fields including Finance, Economics, Management, Sociology, and Psychology. The book will be of interest to pension plan participants and sponsors, financial service groups responsible for pensions, and retirement system regulators.

Download or read book The Pension Plan written by Josiah Vencel and published by . This book was released on 2020-08 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why are dozens of 80-year-olds dying from an assisted-suicide drug in a sleepy California town? This question is one of many mysteries that young reporter Owen Daniels must investigate to save his last living relative. Joined by Officer J.R. Little and an anonymous insider, Owen must delve into the complex world of public pensions to expose a devilishly brilliant plot that few could have imagined--and only one could have orchestrated. Can he solve the mystery in time and save everything he holds dear?The Pension Plan is just that--an elaborate plan involving a complex subject with real-life consequences. Unlike other novels, The Pension Plan was not written merely to entertain. It seeks to incarnationally educate readers about a coming threat to their cities, counties and states--a pension-induced crisis that is far from fiction. In this way, The Pension Plan is a new type of novel, a hybrid between fiction and nonfiction that satisfies the longings of both.
Download or read book The Pension Book written by Karen Ferguson and published by Arcade Publishing. This book was released on 1996-05 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every pension plan has its fine print. Using case studies from the Pension Rights Center, Ferguson and Blackwell show what everyone in a private plan needs to know: how and when their pension will vest; how much their benefit will be; and whether it is adjusted for inflation. Is the plan overfunded or underfunded? Will it survive should the company change hands or go bankrupt? And what happens in the event of death or divorce? Each chapter tackling these subjects is followed by a "What to Do" section in which the authors demonstrate, point by point, how we can take charge of our retirement future. No retirement plan? You're not alone. Half of all Americans have no plan other than social security, and this venerable system - never intended to cover all retirement needs - typically pays people 40 percent of what they were earning when they worked. Or maybe you're in a do-it-yourself savings plan. Increasingly, employers are substituting these plans for traditional pensions. Again, Ferguson and Blackwell provide practical suggestions and reliable advice about the pros and cons of IRAs, 401(k)s, and the other tax-sheltered savings arrangements.
