Tiivistelmä
This paper provides an overview of the structure and functionality of the pension schemes in Finland and Norway. The main focus is on the 2005 pension reform in Finland and the forthcoming 2010 pension reform in Norway. Norway and Finland share many similarities in their pension reforms and preparation for an ageing society. The recent reform in Finland and the forthcoming reform in Norway should reduce significantly the pressure to increase pension contributions. One of the main factors in this respect is the pension adjustment based on the life expectancy. Strengthening the incentives for work has been one of the main principles when countries have renewed their pension schemes.
