The main addressed question of this thesis is whether international experiences indicate that private pension pillar contributes to the profitability and stability of pension system and economic development. Firstly, global private pension pillar is characterized. Its long term return is estimated from derived virtual portfolio. Following Aaron-Samuelson principle, it is calculated notional return of global public pension pillar. Comparing returns of both pillars, there is slightly higher return of private pension pillar, but considering variability, entailing risk, the public pension pillar becomes favorable. Moreover, combination of both pillar doesn't seem to be effective since both returns are well correlated. Next section of the thesis deals with economic effects of private pension pillar on labor market. Simple correlation doesn't proof a positive linking of private pension pillar's contribution magnitude and labor activity, expressed as an average annual working time of population in productivity age. Subsequent analysis of private pension pillar's outlook in selected countries illustrates unfulfilled expectations of participants in private pension pillars. Reflecting all particular findings, it wasn't confirmed that private pension pillars substantially contribute to profitability and stability of pension system and performance of economy.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Adriana Freisleben de Zanetti.pdf: 1139054 bytes, checksum: acc0cc333c5f39f2835d79108711c0dd (MD5) Previous issue date: 2017-09-20 / Closed private pension entities, in Brazil also known as “pension funds”, integrate the voluntary complementary private pension system. Unlike opened entities, that operate based on profit objective, closed private pensions entities are prohibited by law to obtain profits. In this way, closed private pension entities are assets directly linked to the scope of paying the contracted social security benefits. To correctly reach their scope, closed private pension entities must be well managed. Risks related to assets and liabilities should be taken account into, by elaborating the entity’s actuarial and financial premises and goals. Risk is a key point to be considered, especially after the dimension it has taken in the risk society. The asset and liability management model to be adopted by closed private pension entities must be based on practices that reduce the risks that pension funds face, with the aim of diminishing correlated threats that could lead to entity’s crash. Reckless management in pension funds occurs when entities’ administrators act unwary of prudent person rule standards and are heedless of the conservative measures destined to maintain the balance between the entities’ assets and liabilities. However, the concept of reckless management in pension funds cannot be established a priori, since it depends on further legal statutes integration to judge the entities’ administrators deportment as contrary to the rule of law / As Entidades Fechadas de Previdência Complementar (EFPC), conhecidas como “fundos de pensão”, integram a previdência privada complementar. Ao contrário das entidades abertas, que têm por escopo a finalidade lucrativa, os fundos de pensão são proibidos de obter lucro, consistindo em acervos patrimoniais afetados ao pagamento de benefícios previdenciários. Para o correto cumprimento de sua finalidade, os fundos de pensão devem ser bem administrados, tanto em relação ao ativo, quanto em relação ao passivo. Sobre ambos os aspectos incide o elemento risco, que deve ser devidamente ponderado e considerado quando da elaboração das metas financeiras e atuariais das entidades. O risco constitui elemento de relevo, pela dimensão que toma na atual “sociedade de risco”. Assim, o modelo de gestão adotado pelas EFPC deve ser embasado em práticas que reduzam as ameaças com potencialidade de desequilibrar a solidez dos planos, de modo a manter a adequação das premissas financeiras e atuariais à massa de participantes e beneficiários. Gerir temerariamente entidades fechadas de previdência complementar significa agir de modo desviante dos padrões de prudência adequados às especificidades, investimentos e metas de um plano de benefícios, ação essa capaz de implicar ofensividade material e objetivamente provável à segurança dos contratos. Porém, a aferição da temeridade da gestão não é algo que possa constar estabelecido, de modo fechado, a priori, eis que depende de uma série de integrações normativas para que o desvalor da conduta do administrador possa ser enquadrado no adjetivo temerária

O regime de previdência privada é facultativo e baseado na constituição de reservas que garantam o benefício contratado, sendo caracterizado pelo propósito de complementar os benefícios oferecidos pelo regime oficial, garantindo a manutenção do padrão de vida dos participantes no momento em que se aposentam e deixam de exercer atividades remuneradas.

This analysis will focus on three groups of variables: economic, social and demographic and structural. This relationship will be empirically demonstrated by the elasticity of the variables over the assets’ share on the GDP, estimated through a time series regression. The main idea is to provide estimators easily to interpret in order to support better policies that will leverage the pension funds coverage in the Brazilian labor-force market. This study differs from the others in three aspects. The first aspect refers to the period of data, a little longer than the others. The second aspect refers to interpolation of missing observations in series, which implies in a better predictive model once there is more data available. The third and last aspect refers to the analyzed group of variables that impact both, the demand and supply of pension funds. / O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar o crescimento dos ativos dos fundos de pensão em relação ao PIB, identificando quais variáveis atuaram de forma mais relevante para o crescimento observado desde o início da década de noventa até o ano de 2006. A relação dessas variáveis com o crescimento dos ativos em relação ao PIB será demonstrada empiricamente através da estimação das elasticidades utilizando modelos regressivos de séries temporais. A idéia principal de se utilizar esta modelagem é o fato dela ser facilmente interpretada, podendo suportar mais claramente a elaboração de políticas que alavanquem o crescimento da cobertura dos fundos de pensão no mercado de trabalho brasileiro. Este trabalho difere dos demais em três aspectos. O primeiro se refere à periodicidade dos dados analisados, sendo a deste trabalho um pouco mais longa que a dos demais. O segundo aspecto concentra-se na interpolação dos dados inexistentes das séries, cujo objetivo é aumentar o poder explicativo das séries com um maior número de observações. Por fim, o terceiro aspecto é o conjunto de variáveis escolhidas, uma vez que engloba tanto aquelas que atuam pelo lado da demanda quando da oferta de fundos de pensão.

The theme of my thesis is the analysis of the factors influencing the market of pension funds in the Czech Republic. The aim of this work is to analyze the factors affecting the pension market in the last ten years. The theoretical part is focused on the overview of a given issue, the definition of legislative terms and basic concepts. There is described the basic characteristics of the pension funds and the legal framework. A separate chapter is devoted to the management of pension funds and state supervision of pension funds. There is also an overview of the development of the pension fund in the Czech Republic and other terms associated with it. In the practical part there is monitored an impact of individual factors (the gross domestic product, unemployment, inflation and wage developments) on indicators of the pension market, with evaluation by using regression and correlation analysis. The aim is to determine whether there is a relationship of macroeconomic variables on the characteristics of the pension market, or how to tight the binding between them. In the second part of the practical work was monitored the performance of each pension fund.
