Summary/Abstract: The work analyzes the course, contents and political process of the pension reforms in the SFRY successor states. The role of the World Bank, as the most powerful international financial institutions, which have had a very significant role in this process, is especially highlighted. Besides the principal opposition to the concept of the World Bank and assistance to the trade unions regarding education of their delegates, the role of the International Labor Office and International Social Security Association proved to be not much important. The impact of domestic participants was particularly analyzed, which, according to the conclusion of this study, was dominant.
