The use of matching contributions to enhance the participation and level of savings in pensions system has now been in use for nearly three decades in a number of high income countries. Increasingly, countries across the full range of economic development are looking to the design as a means of addressing the low rates of participation in formal pension and other retirement savings systems. A number of countries have recently introduced innovations in their pension systems that significantly rely on contributions matches and related types of direct subsidies to provide incentives for groups that mandates and other indirect methods such as preferential tax treatment have been unsuccessful in ...

For the first time in the republican history of Peru, the presidential transition takes place in democracy, social peace, fast economic growth and favorable world markets. In other words, there has never been a better chance to build a different Peru - a richer country, more equal and governable. There are multiple ways to achieve that goal. New reforms must stem from a widespread and participatory debate, one of a common vision conceived for and by Peruvians. This book aims at making a technical and independent contribution to such debate; it summarizes the knowledge available about the challenges to be faced by the new administration. The study does not recommend silver bullets, but sugges...
New York Times bestselling author of The Everything Store Brad Stone takes us deep inside the new Silicon Valley. Ten years ago, the idea of getting into a stranger’s car, or walking into a stranger’s home, would have seemed bizarre and dangerous, but today it’s as common as ordering a book online. Uber and Airbnb are household names: redefining neighbourhoods, challenging the way governments regulate business and changing the way we travel. In the spirit of iconic Silicon Valley renegades like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, a new generation of entrepreneurs is sparking yet another cultural upheaval through technology. They are among the Upstarts, idiosyncratic founders with limitless driv...
"¿Estamos protegidos en la vejez?". Esta es la pregunta central que busca ser respondida en esta obra, imprescindiblemente, desde el derecho de la seguridad social. La primera respuesta, más simple y directa, puede ser un "no" desolador. Sin embargo, el autor toma esto como punto de partida para efectuar un estudio preocupado y minucioso. No solo revela las falencias intrínsecas del modelo sui generis de pensiones adoptado en nuestro país (jubilación laboralizada), sino que, además, propone una reforma integral para asegurar una mejor protección social (jubilación deslaboralizada) en favor de todas las personas, especialmente, las más vulnerables. La obra, además de ofrecer un tratamiento completo, accesible y riguroso sobre el régimen jurídico, jurisprudencial y doctrinal de la jubilación en el Perú, permite dar un panorama crítico de nuestro actual sistema de pensiones; y, tomar consciencia de los cambios que en él deberían operar (un modelo para armar). Pues, ¡vivimos en un mundo inseguro y que envejece!
