Abstract: Accumulation of funds for retirement followed by consumption of accumulated savings are the two phases which can be used to characterise retirement risk. Occupational pension schemes allow their members to manage risk in one or both phases. This article presents and compares the functioning of occupational pension schemes in the United Kingdom and Poland, taking into account the prevalence of such schemes and opportunities for members to manage risk before and after retirement.

Keywords: occupational pension schemes; two phases characterising retirement risk; risk management possibilities for members (search for similar items in EconPapers)
