PUBLIC POLICY TOWARDS PRIVATE PENSIONS

Richard A. Ippolito

Contemporary Economic Policy, 1983, vol. 1, issue 3, 53-76

Abstract: This paper reviews and evaluates public policy towards private pensions which has developed in the U.S. over the past 60 years. It is shown that research results reported in the literature are not sufficiently conclusive to permit resolution of all, or even the most important, efficiency questions that surround pension policy. Given available information, a series of policy recommendations are made to either retain or alter current federal policy towards pensions. Unanswered research questions that prevent a more definitive set of conclusions are identified and discussed
