| Tiivistelmä: | This paper compares pension systems with flat-rate and earnings-related (here as: ern-rltd.) benefit formulas, based on data of eight European countries. It is found that the median voter is typically middle-aged with high income. For these voters, ern-rltd. systems are more attractive both because of less intragenerational redistribution and lower distortions in labour supply. The median voter model can also account for a considerable degree of cross-country variation in contribution rates. |
