Abstract: The economic crisis has emphasised the fragility of the pension system in Romania. The ageing tendency of our country’s population completes the already bleak economic picture concerning the pension system. Romania’s situation is not unique, it is found in most developed European states, in which the population ageing phenomenon is more pronounced. Accepting the imperfections of the pension system and finding the right solutions for the next period are the current requirements. At European level there appeared the concept concerning the implementation of a new culture of active ageing as one of the possible solutions for improving the pension system.
