- IORP II is an EU directive that updates pension regulation and aims to improve governance, risk management, and transparency for occupational pension funds.
- It creates both challenges and opportunities for pension funds as they must comply with new requirements regarding functions like risk management and auditing.
- While IORP II seeks to facilitate cross-border consolidation of pension schemes, this may be limited in practice due to barriers like different implementation in each member state.
The care market in Barnet is dominated by residential care homes due to a high number of self-funding retirees. However, self-funders may not have good access to advice about care options. Most care is received through informal arrangements, but demand is expected to rise as more families provide care. Long-term carers are at risk for health problems. The UK government launched a national carers strategy in 2008 to improve support, but gaps remain like respite care. There is a need for more accessible housing with support to help those with complex needs.
Over the last decade, the gap between the old and the young in Europe has been growing due to worsening social and economic conditions. The presentation lays down a set of proposal both at the EU and at the national level to reverse the trend.
The document provides background information on the European Development Fund (EDF), which is the main instrument the EU uses to provide development aid to African, Caribbean, and Pacific countries. It discusses the EDF's performance based on recent evaluations, addressing criticisms that the EDF focuses too much on middle-income countries, has inflexible procedures, and suffers from weak forecasting and slow disbursement of funds. The evaluations found the EDF performs well in areas like policy dialogue and alignment with national development strategies, and it is more effective than other EU instruments in contributing to development goals.

FEANTSA is the European NGO focused exclusively on homelessness. It has members in national and regional networks of services for the homeless across all EU member states except Cyprus. FEANTSA engages in lobbying, research, conferences, and communications to address homelessness. It is funded by the EU and its members.
In recent years, the EU policy context has become more favorable to addressing homelessness. The Council of Ministers, European Parliament, Committee of the Regions, and Economic and Social Committee have all called for an EU homeless strategy. The European Commission also recognizes homelessness as a priority that requires an EU framework.

The document discusses challenges facing mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in 2010, including excess liquidity, low interest rates, political issues in Europe, and sovereign debt. It also covers consequences of the recent financial crisis such as opportunities for M&A by companies with strong cash positions. New regulations like Basel II and Solvency II will help the European insurance sector. Key sectors for M&A are predicted to be content/entertainment, communications, pharmaceuticals, and clean energy. Trends in 2010 show a decline in M&A activity in Europe compared to previous years.

The document defines several terms related to the European Union:
- Absorption capacity refers to a country's ability to effectively receive and utilize aid. Developing countries often lack factors like teachers, schools, and efficient administration.
- An acceding country has met criteria for joining the EU and completed negotiations to do so.
- The acquis communautaire refers to the body of common rights and obligations shared by EU members, including treaties, laws, international agreements, and court rulings. Accepting the acquis means adopting the existing structure of the EU.
- Several terms relate to the process of joining the EU, including applicant country, candidate country, and Copenhagen criteria that a candidate must meet.

Mobile citizens within the EU face social, cultural, and perception challenges. They may lose democratic rights and access to their own culture when living abroad. Their skills and qualifications may not be recognized in other countries. There is also insufficient assistance for citizens returning home from living abroad. A European Year for Mobile Citizens aims to defend EU citizens' right to free movement, address genuine concerns about mobility by providing facts, and establish a comprehensive policy around EU migration that considers economic, social, cultural, democratic, and return migration issues.
The document discusses the mainstreaming of results from an EQUAL development partnership in Estonia called "Reintegration of Compulsive Gamblers into the Labour Market and Prevention of their Social Exclusion." The partnership worked to establish a rehabilitation center for problem gamblers and increase awareness. To mainstream the results, the partnership worked with the Ministry of Social Affairs to develop a strategy to address problem gambling and secure ongoing funding for the rehabilitation center. A working group was formed and developed an action plan and legislation changes, with the goal of finalizing a strategy by March 2008.

The document summarizes the European Commission's Green Paper on the Capital Markets Union. It discusses how the Capital Markets Union aims to diversify and stimulate Europe's financing environment by improving the efficiency and functioning of its capital markets. Currently, Europe relies too heavily on bank financing compared to countries like the US which have more developed capital markets. The Green Paper seeks input on a wide range of issues to develop Europe's capital markets and move the EU model closer to that of the US over time.
The document provides information about several institutions and bodies that make up the European Union (EU). It discusses the European Commission, European Parliament, EU Council of Ministers, European Council, European Court of Justice, European Court of Auditors, European Central Bank, European Investment Bank, European Economic and Social Committee, and EU regional committee. It also briefly outlines some of the EU's policy areas, population, area, and spending. The main purpose is to outline the key components and structures that make up the EU system of governance.

The document discusses the implications of Brexit for charities in the UK. It provides updates on key Brexit milestones such as triggering Article 50 and agreeing to an implementation period. It outlines how the Office for Civil Society can help charities understand Brexit impacts. Brexit may affect EU funding for charities, freedom of movement for EU citizens working in the sector, and EU laws and regulations that charities operate under. The future is uncertain but the sector is encouraged to provide views to help shape policies on these issues.

The Single European Act of 1986 made significant revisions to advance the European Community towards a single market, including provisions for qualified majority voting, an endorsement of the white paper calling for completion of the single market, and addressing economic and social cohesion between member states. It also aimed to strengthen foreign policy coordination and democracy. The act helped spur greater economic integration and laid the groundwork for the creation of the European Union in 1992 with the Maastricht Treaty.

The document is a memorandum from Belgian health insurance funds calling for greater social protection and stronger health policies in Europe ahead of the 2019 European elections. The memorandum makes the case that Europe has a significant impact on national policies related to social protection, healthcare, and health promotion. It argues that maintaining the Directorate-General for Health and Food Safety (DG SANTE) within the European Commission is essential for defending public health in Europe. The memorandum outlines six priority themes for healthcare and social protection: 1) a social Europe with fewer inequalities, 2) recognition of health insurance funds and a strong social economy, 3) transparent trade agreements respecting social and human rights, 4) a digital agenda addressing health challenges, 5) strengthened public health

The European Disability Strategy 2010-2020 was created to address barriers that around 80 million Europeans with disabilities face in everyday life. The strategy's goals are to empower people with disabilities and eliminate barriers in eight key areas: accessibility, participation, equality, employment, education and training, social protection, health, and external action. Over the next decade, the European Commission will work with EU partners to implement actions like proposing an Accessibility Act, increasing employment opportunities for people with disabilities, and collecting more data on disability challenges. The strategy aims to create a more inclusive society that also brings economic opportunities to Europe.

The document discusses the future role of the European Social Fund (ESF). It makes three key points:
1) While EU social policy action is marginal compared to national efforts, the ESF can have an impact through "process effects, role effects, and volume effects." However, these effects are small, especially in net contributor countries.
2) For the ESF to be effective, interventions must be well-targeted in areas where there is genuine European added value that national actors cannot provide alone. Broad goals like "smart growth" are too vague to guide funding.
3) The role of the EU in developing social policy is supportive and supplementary in nature. It should focus on collective needs, long

Aviva Mind The Gap survey regional uk pensions gapcoussey
The document summarizes a report by Aviva that quantifies Europe's "pensions gap", which is the difference between the pension provision people need for an adequate standard of living in retirement and the pension amount they can currently expect to receive.
The key findings are:
1) Across the EU, the annual pensions gap is €1.9 trillion, or 19% of 2010 GDP. No single policy change can close the gap entirely on its own.
2) At an individual level, some people will need to increase savings by an average of €12,000 per year to fully close their personal pensions gap.
3) Non-pension assets, such as property, are only expected to
The document summarizes the conclusions from the 9th European Economic Congress held in Poland in May 2017. Key topics discussed included the future of the European Union given political shifts toward populism and economic protectionism, the integrity of the EU common market, and how to regain citizen confidence in the EU. Regarding the economy, debates focused on corporate social responsibility, the role of the state in regulating capitalism to address its faults, and challenges in the labor market around skills mismatches and intergenerational differences. The overall message was that while the EU faces uncertainties and divisions, further integrating and taking responsibility rather than dividing will best build European prosperity.
This document discusses citizens' power to hold public institutions accountable through participation in decision making. It describes SIGMA as a joint OECD-EU initiative that helps countries strengthen governance. Public administration is important for the EU accession process though not a formal chapter. Policy tools like impact assessments and consultation are emphasized as mechanisms for accountability and public input. Open policy making, data sharing and framing of issues can impact decisions and unintended consequences may arise, so participation is key.
This document provides an overview of cooperatives worldwide and in the EU. It notes that there are over 3 million cooperatives globally employing 280 million people, with the 300 largest cooperatives having a turnover of $2 trillion in 2016. In the EU there are 131,000 cooperatives employing over 4.3 million people and generating €992 billion annually in turnover. While cooperatives have grown in economic importance, they face challenges from globalization, differing national laws, and governance issues. Lawmakers are discussing initiatives to establish a level playing field for cooperatives to compete with other businesses while maintaining their social missions.
The document discusses reconciliation of family/care work and paid employment in Europe. It notes that about 19 million Europeans provide informal care for family members and that care arrangements vary between northern Europe's service-based models and southern Europe's family-based models. The document outlines relevant EU policies and national programs across EU members that provide caregiver leave or allow reduced work hours to support family members. It concludes that combining informal family care with professional care options and support for caregivers in the workplace and social services can help address aging demographic challenges.
The document outlines funding priorities for 2010 under the EU Progress program. Key priorities include conducting studies on issues like the impact of the economic crisis on employment and social policies, skills shortages, demographic changes, and more. It also prioritizes sharing best practices between member states, providing guidance on EU law, and promoting participatory policy debates at EU and national levels to build support for EU objectives. The overall aim is to support the development and implementation of EU policies and legislation in employment, social affairs, and equal opportunities.
The document outlines funding priorities for 2010 under the European Community Programme for Employment and Social Solidarity (PROGRESS). It identifies key strategic challenges facing the EU, including coping with the economic crisis, addressing skills shortages, demographic changes, youth unemployment, migration, technological advances, and workplace safety. PROGRESS will focus on designing evidence-based policies, effective information sharing and learning, promoting policy debate, and strengthening capacity networks. New activities will address the economic crisis, the low-carbon economy, social impacts of migration, and disability statistics.
The document provides information on the European Union (EU) including its formation, governance, economy, trade, funding, policies, and challenges. It was formed in 1993 and currently has 28 member states. Key points include that the EU has a single market across members and seven governing institutions. It also discusses the Eurozone, which has the euro as a common currency for 17 members, and the ongoing Eurozone crisis involving government debt.

FERPA is the European Federation of Retired and Elderly People, which advocates for policies that promote social security, healthcare, and inclusion for retired and elderly citizens. It lobbies the European Union and national governments on these issues.
The EU has prioritized active aging policies to increase employment among elderly workers. This includes goals to raise the employment rate of those aged 55-64 to 50% by 2010 and gradually increase the average retirement age by 5 years.
National governments and social partners are implementing initiatives to shift from a culture of early retirement to delayed and more gradual retirement, through subsidies for employers, training programs, flexible work arrangements, and awareness campaigns on non-discrimination of older workers.

The document discusses the economic outlook for Greece and the euro area. It notes that most economic indicators point to relative stagnation in the euro area currently. For Greece, real GDP growth is estimated at 3.6% in 2023, with inflation slowing to 2.5% and unemployment falling further. Several charts show trends in GDP, inflation, fiscal balances, investments and other economic indicators in Greece. EU funding programs like the Recovery and Resilience Facility and the next EU budget will provide around €87 billion for Greece through 2027 to support investments and reforms.

1.) Introduction
Our Movement is not new; it is the same as it was for Freedom, Justice, and Equality since we were labeled as slaves. However, this movement at its core must entail economics.
2.) Historical Context
This is the same movement because none of the previous movements, such as boycotts, were ever completed. For some, maybe, but for the most part, it’s just a place to keep your stable until you’re ready to assimilate them into your system. The rest of the crabs are left in the world’s worst parts, begging for scraps.
3.) Economic Empowerment
Our Movement aims to show that it is indeed possible for the less fortunate to establish their economic system. Everyone else – Caucasian, Asian, Mexican, Israeli, Jews, etc. – has their systems, and they all set up and usurp money from the less fortunate. So, the less fortunate buy from every one of them, yet none of them buy from the less fortunate. Moreover, the less fortunate really don’t have anything to sell.
4.) Collaboration with Organizations
Our Movement will demonstrate how organizations such as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, National Urban League, Black Lives Matter, and others can assist in creating a much more indestructible Black Wall Street.
5.) Vision for the Future
Our Movement will not settle for less than those who came before us and stopped before the rights were equal. The economy, jobs, healthcare, education, housing, incarceration – everything is unfair, and what isn’t is rigged for the less fortunate to fail, as evidenced in society.
6.) Call to Action
Our movement has started and implemented everything needed for the advancement of the economic system. There are positions for only those who understand the importance of this movement, as failure to address it will continue the degradation of the people deemed less fortunate.
No, this isn’t Noah’s Ark, nor am I a Prophet. I’m just a man who wrote a couple of books, created a magnificent website: http://www.thearkproject.llc, and who truly hopes to try and initiate a truly sustainable economic system for deprived people. We may not all have the same beliefs, but if our methods are tried, tested, and proven, we can come together and help others. My website: http://www.thearkproject.llc is very informative and considerably controversial. Please check it out, and if you are afraid, leave immediately; it’s no place for cowards. The last Prophet said: “Whoever among you sees an evil action, then let him change it with his hand [by taking action]; if he cannot, then with his tongue [by speaking out]; and if he cannot, then, with his heart – and that is the weakest of faith.” [Sahih Muslim] If we all, or even some of us, did this, there would be significant change. We are able to witness it on small and grand scales, for example, from climate control to business partnerships. I encourage, invite, and challenge you all to support me by visiting my website.

3. AEIP currently has:
20 members from 12 European Countries
12 Task Force Members from 4 European Countries
80 million European citizens covered by AEIP members
1200 social protection providers represented
1300 billion assets under management (AuM)
AEIP is a Brussels-based advocacy organization,
representing Social Protection Institutions established and
managed by employers and trade unions on a joint basis
within the framework of collective agreements.
All AEIP members are:
Based in an EU Member States
Paritarian institutions
Non-for-profit
Long-term institutional investors
4. The characteristics of occupational pensions
o Occupational pensions are assessed on the basis of professional activity
o Occupational pension schemes are characterised by a social purpose and,
depending on the national strategy, can play a central role in old-age income
replacement
o Supplementary pensions provide additional retirement savings, complementing
statutory pensions and thus enhancing the income maintenance capacity of pension
systems
o As long-term investors, IORPs have the capacity to invest in socially and
environmentally sustainable areas
6. Competences of the EU over pensions
o Competences of EU: The EU legal framework covers some aspects related to
pensions, such as protection of rights in case of cross-border mobility, consumer
protection, gender equality and the single market for supplementary pensions.
Beyond this, the EU supports Member States’ efforts to ensure adequate and
sustainable pensions through the European Semester, the European Pillar of
Social Rights and the Open Method of Coordination (OMC) of mutual learning and
exchange of best practices.
7. Paritarian Institutions – Challenges
General Challenges:
o The evolution of the demographic situation in the EU – population ageing (less people in employment are funding a
systems that ensures coverage of more people)
o The growing workforce of non-standard workers who are not represented at all is an additional element which poses a
challenge to the paritarian model
o Slow economic growth & low interest rates environment – EU MSs are faced with the big challenge of financing their
social security systems in the medium and long-term
o Adequacy vs. Sustainability of Social Protection Systems (balance between social vs. economic)
Specific Challenges:
o Substantial decreases in trade union membership “de-unionization”
o Different situation in EU MSs – on average lower union density than EU14 average (14%), except Slovenia and Croatia
o Funded pensions often target of political decisions (e.g. rolling back of statutory funded schemes in Central and Eastern
Europe)
o Changing economic conditions (no predictability and need for adaptability)
o New forms of work – less likely to be unionized
o Highly competitive environment – European vs. Global markets
8. Policy Recommendations for enhancing the
role of IORPs
EU member states should:
o promote awareness of the choices and risks at pay-out, through financial education initiatives
o promote ways for enhancing coverage of occupational pensions (e.g. automatic enrolment)
o create tax and financial incentives for employees and employers to adopt supplementary
pensions that meet minimum quality requirements. These incentives should reflect the
diversity in characteristics of types of pensions in different Member States
o ensure that the available pay-out options adequately cover the longevity risk, taking into
account the national social protection system
o ensure that savers benefit from personalised advice before retirement on the sustainable use
of the capital accumulated
o Continue promoting cross-border investment by pension providers
o Set up national tracking services for pensions, for transparency and convenience of citizens
9. Policy Recommendations for enhancing the role
of IORPs
The EU should:
o give Member States the necessary flexibility to supplement prudential requirements for
the IORP II Directive, bearing in mind the national social, tax and labour law
o assess the implementation of the IORP II Directive before proposing any further change
with a horizontal regulatory framework
o support the development of a European tracking service for pensions in order to
enable citizens to have a comprehensive and comparable overview of pension
entitlements
10. Policy Recommendations for enhancing the role
of IORPs
The EU, Member States, social partners and relevant stakeholders should:
o Adopt a long-term and holistic approach to developing multi-tier pension systems
o Reflect on how to address issues such as gaps on the pension adequacy for specific
groups (e.g. women and non-standard workers)
o Reflect on how to address the growing number of non-standard forms of employment
o Develop clear, robust and science-based methodological tools on the impact of IORPs
on sustainable finance goals, including environmental and social goals
o Clarify how pension providers can take into account the impact of ESG factors on
investment decisions
