Key Data About the Swiss Pension System
Knowledge for getting the most from advinda Premium’s goCH&A Pension & Insurance Investor Intelligence Package
The pension system in Switzerland has three pillars:
- mandatory basic state insurance scheme,
- mandatory second pillar: occupational pensions and
- private (voluntary) pensions
The compulsory second pillar system means Switzerland is one of the few countries where the three pillars contribute almost equally to old-age income.
The Employment and Social Innovation (EaSI) programme
is a new pan-European programme which will start on
1 January 2014, as part of the EU 2014-2020 Multiannual
Financial Framework.EaSi integrates three existing programmes: PROGRESS, EURES, PROGRESS Microfinance Facility.

Tax Aspects of Gender Budgeting - Margit SCHRATZENSTALLER (Austria)OECD Governance
Presentation given at the OECD Gender Budgeting Experts Meeting, Vienna, Austria. 18-19 June 2018
For more information see http://www.oecd.org/gov/budgeting/gender-budgeting-experts-meeting-2018.htm
As of 2022, Insurance premium written p.a. within CEE14 region (Central and Eastern Europe) was worth €43.6 billion . Poland came first in the region with nearly € 15.4 billion in premium and 35 % regional share. Poland's insurance sector is stable and it is shaped by two long term trends. A continuous , solid growth within the non-life segment. A stagnation in the life sector
However, while premium income is projected to accelerate in the mid-term, insurers' profitability is likely to stagnate. Insurers will need to make substantial investments to effectively defend their profitability. The insurance sector in Poland is undergoing a gradual evolution, with consolidation being one of key processes. Recently, a few players decided to leave the market and a number of M&A deals have been closed. Prominent transactions include the acquisition of Aegon by VIG, the acquisition of Aviva by Allianz, and the integration of MetLife by Nationale Nederlanden. Through consolidation, mid-sized insurers are able to scale up their operations and enhance profitability in the face of rising costs, required investments, and tariff pressures. Consolidation within the sector presents various benefits.

Synergies between ESIF funds, Horizon 2020 and other research programmesParma Couture
Improving linkages between various EU Funds is the best way to enhance the impact of research and innovation (R&I) investments. By coordinating different forms of support, these links help creating competitiveness, jobs and growth in the EU by combining, for example, European Structural and Investment Funds (ESIF), Horizon 2020 and other EU R&I instruments. Such a cross-cutting approach will be beneficial for gaining international quality of R&I projects, particularly in this area, where the EU is competing on the global stage.
To make these linkages a reality, national and regional authorities involved in the implementation of ESIF programmes focusing on research, innovation and competitiveness must seize the opportunity to ensure coordination and complementarities with instruments like Horizon 2020, COSME, Erasmus+, CreativeEurope and the Connecting Europe Facility. This means joint efforts at EU, national and regional levels in boosting the quality of programmes to achieve better results and higher impacts of the investments.
The European Commission has published guidance for policy-makers and implementing bodies on synergies between the different EU programmes investing into research, innovation and competitiveness, providing possible scenarios for their application in practice.

Elo’s investments generated good returns during the first quarter. Listed equities and hedge fund investments generated the highest returns. Equity market returns were supported by expectations of monetary policy easing and a significant strengthening of the profit growth expectations of technology companies. Elo’s solvency ratio increased and operating expenses decreased.

Cross-border renewables auctions: Germany’s opening of the EEGLeonardo ENERGY
With the Renewable Energy Sources Act 2014 (EEG 2014), the German government has introduced the goal of opening 5 percent of the yearly installed renewables capacity to installations from other EU Member States. In 2016, a first cross-border pilot auction for ground-mounted PV will be conducted between Germany and Denmark for test purposes.
Ecofys leads a consortium that supports the Germany Ministry of Economic Affairs and Energy on the implementation of cross-border auctions. The webinar will present the provisions of the German pilot opening of RES auctions and the functioning of the Danish-German test case. In addition, other possible models for cross-border auctions will be presented.
