Or just..."THE DOPPELGANGER DID IT!"I, Dave Miles, never had any intent on writing a book, much less two or three of them.I was killed for a reason, and then brought-back, (even though my wife sometimes disputes it).

This report summarises the research we have undertaken into the implications of various pension reform strategies in Japan. Reform is essential because ageing will generate extreme pressures on the public, unfunded pension system. We consider the macroeconomic, or aggregate, and the distributional implications of reforms that, to varying degrees, would increase reliance upon funded pensions. We also estimate the welfare implications of reforms by calculating the expected gains and losses to households of various generations. We take as a point of reference a scenario where unfunded pensions provide an income to the retired worth a high proportion of salaries at the end of their working life; we take that proportion to be 50% of gross (or around 70% of net) salaries.

Miles and Scott deal with sophisticated issues using advanced economic theory, but in a manner that is accessible to anyone taking a single course in macroeconomics.
