No 2008/02, EUSP Department of Economics Working Paper Series from European University at St. Petersburg, Department of Economics

Abstract: We introduce a two-classes one-good overlapping generations model of economic growth with bequests. The difference between capitalists and workers is that the firsts have larger discount coefficient and/or higher return to savings. For the model proposed, we define a balanced growth equilibrium and prove its existence. Using the model, we analyze effects of pay-as-you-go and fully funded pension systems. (In Russian).
