Managing Old-age Risk and a Supplementary Pension System in Poland

Summary/Abstract: The article examines the use of a supplementary pension scheme in Poland to insure against old-age risk. The following hypothesis was verified: In order to effectively manage the risks that attend aging, the rules governing third pillar instruments in Poland must be changed. To this end, the old-age risk was characterised and the rules governing the third pillar instruments were analysed, as were the current state and use of those instruments. No grounds to reject the research hypothesis were found, though the desirable direction of changes in the functioning of these instruments is indicated. In addition, the importance of education about pension systems is emphasised.
