Abstract
The investment decisions of individuals are influenced by their perception of risk. The article investigates from an empirical viewpoint the role of risk aversion and of local government as a provider of public services in shaping the decisions of individuals to subscribe to private pension plans. It finds that risk aversion is a relatively important factor in the pension funds subscription decision, and that the greater the provision of local social services, the lower the probability of subscription.
