Abstract
According to estimates of the demographic situation in Ukraine and in the world as a whole, the majority of elderly people are women, which is one of the aspects of gender characteristics. At the same time, at the age of women, they face problems, inappropriate for men, in almost all spheres of life, including employment and retirement. In this context, the spread of feminization of poverty among older age groups encourages the reform of the pension system in order to achieve its gender neutrality. The article identifies gender inconsistencies in the modern pension system of Ukraine compared to EU countries. Based on the elucidation of the essence of gender budgeting, the expediency of improving the domestic pension system by developing its gender component has been proved. This will not only help solve the problem of proper social protection, but will also serve as an important basis for building the country’s investment potential.
