Abstract :	[en] The present paper reviews key issues in pension design and pension reform encountered all <br />across the world. The paper heavily refers to the recent U.S. Social Security reform debate in <br />general and to the Personal Retirement Accounts proposal in particular. A particular <br />emphasis is put on annuitization and risk-taking in the economy. Our discussion signals some <br />inadequacy of the proposed measures with respect to the goals of viability of the system and <br />individual financial security during retirement.
