Notional Defined Contribution : a Comparison of the French and the German Point Systems
Florence Legros  
This paper provides a comparison between the French and German pension schemes by points to NDC pensions schemes (Notionnal Defined Contributions).
The formal equivalence is rather simple to prove ; on the other hand, like the Swedish pension scheme often supposed to be examplary, French and German pensions schemes are not immune to unexpected macroeconomic and demographic shocks. In other respects, generally speaking, searching intragenerational fairness by the way of this type of pensions schemes is questionable due to the large disparity between incomes and life expectancies.
