The Gender Pension Gap in Germany

The gender pension gap in Germany amounts on average to 26 %. It starts to form at the age of 35 years. When entering retirement, women need an extra amount of roughly 25,000 Euro in nominal terms if they aim at closing this gap. A 40 year old woman would have to save an extra 2.3% of her annual income to close it, if the interest rate is 5%, if the inflation rate is 1.5%, and if she lives for another 15 years after retirement
