Guest Lecture by Peng Guo
Until the end of 2016, China’s Pension System covers more than 888 million people. Among them, about 379 are covered by the urban employees’ scheme, others are covered by residents’ scheme which is highly related to Hukou. However, these two schemes are very different from each other. Besides, contribution, benefits and fund differences between different areas in China are huge. This study will (1) introduce different schemes of China’s pension system. (2) present the challenges that China’s pension system facing from four perspectives: coverage, adequacy, multi pillars and sustainability. (3) analyze the reasons of the above challenges. (4) show what the Chinese government has done. (5) propose possible solutions.
