Abstract:
The first part of the thesis describes the history of the Slovak pension scheme until its recent reform, within an international context. The second half of the paper is split into two parts, first one devoted to the macroeconomic and microeconomic analysis of the Slovak republic with respect to the ageing population. The second part analyses the Czech case. In both cases I applied the one-country General Equilibrium Overlapping Generations Model (OLG). I show the impact of a changing population structure on the respective economies in the long run and how the possible reform scenarios (PAYG, Defined Contribution and Fully-Funded system) would alter these results.
