PPI - UK Pensions Framework
It's the Pension Policy Institute's's 20th birthday this year and it has marked that achievement with the creation of a new pension framework. This is how the PPI publicises it.
Purpose
The PPI’s UK Pensions Framework aims to support the development of the future of
pensions policy by allowing stakeholders a coordinated and holistic view of changes across
the system for the first time. The Framework also goes beyond a one-dimensional view of
changes by showing how policy reforms are affecting key parties, what secondary effects
may occur and where trade-offs might exist.
Measures - adequacy, sustainability and fairness
The framework analysis is structured around three interdependent objectives, each of
which is integral to the overall goal of the pension system - helping people to achieve
financial security in later life. They are adequacy, sustainability and fairness.
Design Principles
This publication sets out the design principles of the framework and the process by which
it was constructed. The process included consultation with over 70 key pensions policy
stakeholders. Next year, the PPI will publish the first edition of the UK Pensions
Framework, setting out full analysis of how the UK pension system is working to support
retirement outcomes that are adequate, sustainable and fair.
Use
From thereon, the framework will be a dynamic instrument, tracking changes each year
and simulating the effect of potential shifts or reforms on the system. The analysis will
provide policy-makers a comprehensive understanding of how each potential change might affect other elements of the system, and ultimately the experiences that people in the UK have in later life.”
There is a detailed report as to how their Pension Franework came into being which you can download from here.
I'm proud to have been one of 70 people who the PPI called on for input in this over 2021, I look forward to seeing it in use next year and will be relying on it for future blogs.
Happy 20th anniversary PPI!

How can the financial system serve a green and inclusive economy?IIED
In May 2014, Nick Robins, co-director of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) Inquiry into the Design of a Sustainable Financial System, discussed "How can the financial system serve a green and inclusive economy?" in a Critical Theme seminar hosted by IIED.
In the seminar, Robins outlined the rationale behind UNEP's new Inquiry into the Design of a Sustainable Financial System, which has been tasked to deliver policy recommendations in 2015 that could help underpin the implementation of the new Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris climate agreement.

The federal minimum wage is $7.25 per hour for most workers. CBO has examined how increasing the federal minimum wage to $10, $12, or $15 per hour by 2025 would affect employment and family income. Increasing the minimum wage would have two principal effects on low-wage workers. For most of them, earnings and family income would increase, which would lift some families out of poverty. But other low-wage workers would become jobless, and their family income would fall—in some cases, below the poverty threshold.

In July 2015, the Government began a consultation on changing how the UK incentivises private pension saving, and the Chancellor is expected to respond to this consultation in the Government’s annual Budget in March 2016.
The Future of Private Pension Saving, kindly supported by Age UK, brought together Parliamentarians, business, academics and industry experts to discuss how best the UK Government can incentivise private pension saving.
The debate was opened by initial remarks from Angela Rayner MP (Shadow Pensions Minister), Jackie Wells (Head of Policy and Research, Pensions and Lifetime Savings Association), Sarah Luheshi (Deputy Director, Pensions Policy Institute), and Yvonne Braun (Director, Long-Term Savings Policy, Association of British Insurers).
On Wednesday 27th January, David John, Senior Strategic Policy Adviser at AARP’s Public Policy Institute, and Deputy Director of the Retirement Security Project at the Brookings institute delivered a presentation on tax incentives for pension saving in the US context at an informal reception hosted by Age UK.
Discussions from this event contributed to a formal representation to the HM Treasury regarding Government policy on pensions tax relief and private pension saving.

Now is the time to think like an economist! Using your knowledge of .docxjuliennehar
Now is the time to think like an economist! Using your knowledge of economics and fiscal policy, you will evaluate a particular government direct payment program for its impact on the federal budget and the economy in general. Direct payments are cash payments to individuals or groups for a specific purpose.
Members of Congress listen to economic analysts as one source of information before making fiscal policy decisions, such as whether to increase funding to a direct payment program. Ultimately, Congress votes on specific government programs and the President must approve them. Budget decisions require careful thought and justification to the public. Keep this in mind because you will need to support your opinion with valid research data.
Step One:
Identify a government program to analyze—one where the government makes direct payments to citizens. Examples include economic stimulus checks, small business grants, farm subsidies, disaster relief, renewable energy projects, housing grants, social security, and many more.
Step Two:
Gather research information about your program. Read these
tips for online research
. Provide citation information for every source you use. Include the following information:
What is the history of the program?
Who benefits from this program and how?
What is the yearly cost to the American taxpayer? What is the historical cost data?
What percent of the total federal budget is spent on this program relative to other programs?
What is the impact of this program on price stability, full employment, and economic growth?
What is the potential impact beyond the direct payment recipient? (For example, a small business grant could lead to lowering the unemployment rate in a particular area.)
What are the professional opinions in support of and against the program?
Step Three:
Imagine that Congress is trying to balance the budget and cutting spending for many programs. Create a persuasive presentation that persuades members of Congress to either support or not support continued funding for the payment program. There are many 21st century tools available for effective collaboration and communication in the online environment.

Beyond GDP: Measuring well-being and progress of NationsKübra Bayram
Everyone aspires to a good life. But what does a "good" (or better) life mean? In recent years, concerns have emerged that standard macro-economic statistics, such as GDP, which for a long time had been used as proxies to measure well-being, failed to give a true account of people’s current and future living conditions. The ongoing financial and economic crisis has reinforced this perception and it is now widely recognized that data on GDP provide only a partial perspective on the broad range of factors that matter to people’s lives.
Current Challenges and the Future Direction of Social Security ReformPolicy in Practice

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Modelling pension reform in illinois
1. Modeling Pension Reform in Illinois
We are a group of volunteers trying to educate public
employees, pensioners, tax payers and policy makers
about the math behind pension systems, the current debt,
and possible solutions.
1
2. Open Gov Hack Night
● Our group was born out of the Open Gov Hack Night
which is dedicated to “working at the intersection of
open government, cities, and technology”.
● Our topic is one of a dozen civic engagement projects.
● We meet every Tuesday in the Merchandise Mart.
● Core team of 6 volunteers committed to seeing this
project through. Extended team incorporates volunteers
and stakeholders ad-hoc who provide diverse points of
view, project feedback and subject matter expertise.
2
4. Magnitude of the problem
4
Source: Illinois Public Pension Reform, What’s Past is Prologue, Eric M. Madiar,
Volume 31 Issue 3 - Summer 2014: Illinois Public Employee Relations Report
5. Magnitude of the problem
● $111 billion of unfunded liabilities the state owes five
Illinois pension plans: GARS, JRS, SERS, SURS, TRS.
● A levy of at least $ 23,000 on every family in Illinois.
● Or a loss of at least $146,000 in retirement savings for
every employee and retiree in these five pension plans.
● And the $111 billion might be an underestimate of $100
to $150 billion depending on assumptions
● Most importantly, this problem is solvable. In addition to
awareness, we need to build understanding of this
complex problem. 5
7. How did we get here?
● State’s failure to make required payments
● Structural issues
o Fixed COLA of 3%, compounding is at or above inflation
o Constitutional guarantees inhibit structural modification
o TRS incentive problem where employers (school districts) can control
the amount of benefits accrued but are not responsible for paying the
benefits.
● A menagerie of problematic policies like state-wide
retirement incentives, union leadership benefits, no cap
on pensions.
● Lack of taxpayer and voter engagement in the process.
7
8. Building understanding of the math
All solutions start with an understanding of the problem.
We plan to create two tools to help with this understanding:
● Pension Calculator - for pensioners and interested taxpayers to enter their
personal information and compare current contributions and benefits to
proposed scenarios.
● Liability Calculator - for taxpayers and policy makers to explore what the
state-wide liability looks like under various scenarios. This is a rough
model of the pension systems given our limited access to data and
actuarial resources.
Complex problems cannot be solved in a fair and understandable way without
sophisticated but transparent tools to help.
8
9. Who should pay for the solution?
While building understanding of
this issue, we see a need to
highlight the cost to ALL
stakeholders.
● Taxpayers versus Employees and
Pensioners is only one dimension to
‘Who Should Pay’.
● Another dimension is our current
generation versus future generations.
● We advocate that all solutions be
framed this way.
Current
Generation
Future
Generations
Taxpayers
Employees
and
Pensioners
9
10. Levers of change
● Our tools can help all parties understand the
levers available to change the outcome.
● We can use the model to assess the value of
each lever’s impact.
● We can understand the boundaries of the
problem by showing the most extreme
solutions.

11. Reform Proposals
● Madigan Plan
● Cullerton Plan
● Rauner Budget Plan
● Interesting models to understand extremes
