TL;DR

  • More than half of OECD countries intend to raise the retirement age.
  • The average retirement age is expected to increase by almost two years for current and future workers.
  • The increase in retirement age is a response to the aging population and its impact on public pension finances.
  • Some countries, including Luxembourg, Slovenia, and Colombia, will maintain lower retirement ages.
  • Denmark, Estonia, Italy, the Netherlands, and Sweden are implementing reforms to raise retirement ages significantly, potentially to 70 or above.
  • Spain and four Latin American OECD members (Chile, Costa Rica, Mexico, Colombia) are not planning retirement age increases, though specific ages vary.
  • The dependency ratio (elderly population compared to working-age population) is projected to increase sharply, especially in South Korea, Spain, Italy, and Greece.
  • Lower employment rates among those nearing retirement age in Spain and Latin American countries exacerbate pension sustainability issues.
  • OECD countries' average public pension spending is predicted to rise from 8.8% to 10% of GDP by 2050.
  • Spain is projected to have the highest pension spending as a percentage of GDP by mid-century, surpassing Italy, France, and Greece.
