Melbourne Mercer Global Pension Index has become an important reference point in the debate about the quality of retirement systems around the world. While some countries have well-established retirement systems that have stood the test of time, others are just developing, especially those within the Asian region. The main goal of the Index is to provide additional information for policy makers to struggle with the competing needs of an ageing population and achieving an appropriate fiscal balance.

For further information about the Index methodology and details see the Melbourne Mercer web site.
