Retirement income security is a crucial concern in today's rapidly aging world. While national public pensions, corporate pensions, and individual and reverse mortgages offer some form of income protection, the availability and adequacy of these systems vary significantly across countries. This book aims to provide a comprehensive survey of these various retirement income sources and their performance in different nations.

From the perspective of financial consumers, this book examines public pensions, corporate pensions, individual pensions, and reverse mortgages in a cross-sectional manner. It compares these options across a range of important countries, shedding light on their strengths, weaknesses, and potential implications for designing an overall income security plan for individuals.

Furthermore, the book addresses the critical issues that need to be considered in order to ensure sustainable and comprehensive income security for retirees. It explores topics such as funding mechanisms, risk management, and social security reforms, highlighting the challenges and opportunities that exist in developing and implementing effective income security systems.

By providing a comprehensive analysis of retirement income security, this book aims to empower financial consumers with the knowledge and tools they need to make informed decisions about their retirement planning. It serves as a valuable resource for policymakers, researchers, and anyone interested in understanding the complex dynamics of retirement income security and developing strategies to address this pressing issue.
