Abstract

In 1981, Chile replaced its government‐run pay‐as‐you‐go pension system with a national system of individual Pension Savings Accounts managed by the private sector.

More important, Chilean workers now have property rights over their own pension contributions and enjoy much higher pensions than under the old system.
