Abstract:
A scheme of pensions to be granted to employees on retirement from
service can be effected either by means of a contract with an assurance
company or by the establishment of a "private" pension fund. The
choice of method is a problem of some difficulty depending to a large
extent on the size and stability of the employing concern and on the
nature of the benefits desired, but the principles which govern the
working of a scheme are the same whether its success is the responsibility
of a contracting party or of private trustees. I propose to
offer a few comments by way of a general survey of these principles,
which, it will be seen, require a close study and a broad outlook for
their full appreciation.
