We study numerically the inter- and intra-generational welfare consequences of alternative pension fund policies in response to unexpected demographic, financial and macro-economic shocks. Our analysis is based on an applied many-generation OLG model describing a small-open economy with...

Our analysis is based on an applied OLG model of a small open economy with heterogeneous agents featuring a two-pillar...
