Preference for Having Children, Fertility and Social Security

Chapter Chapter 6 in Population Aging, Fertility and Social Security, 2017, pp 85-101 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract In this chapter, incorporating heterogeneity in preference to having children in a small open economy model, we examine the effects of changes in the size of PAYG social security on fertility choices of individuals and population growth of the economy. In this chapter we focus on the differences in fertility rates under two benefits schemes of proportional-to-contribution or uniform benefits.
