Picking Up the Gauntlet – Europe’s Answer to the ‘Pension Problem’: The PEPP

Abstract

Over the recent years, pension policy has become an ever more important topic throughout Europe. This article contains a description on the PEPP and its consumer protection elements, potential uses and its Level 2 measures. The Authors concludes that the PEPP can help break down these barriers as well as contribute to a high level of consumer protection, for example via limiting the costs and providing detailed information requirements.
