Abstract

This paper argues that it is important to take into account unfunded public pension liabilities as part of an assessment of the overall fiscal situation. It examines the concept of the implicit pension debt (IPD) and presents estimates for 24 developing countries based on a consistent methodology and assumptions. The policy conclusions stress the need for standardised international reporting of this indicator.
