  1. International Forum on Pension ReformJune, 2007 (Re)designing regulatory framework for pension reform and development of financial markets: Estonian experience Veiko Tali Ministry of Finance of Estonia

  2. Impact of pension reform for development of financial markets • the earlier you will start with reform – the higher the impact - comparing with the relative level of development of financial markets • the bigger the potential financial volumes – the higher the impact - mandatory character and level of contributions • the smaller the country – the higher the impact ?

  3. Impact of pension reform for development of financial markets • the long term (30) impact is more important than short (5) and medium (10-15) term one (adaptivity is crucial) • redesigning possibilities can be restricted (eg. justified expectations of voluntary switchers) Flexibility versus reliability ?

  4. Reformed pension system FIRST publicly managed compulsory PAYG ER-16 % 1999/2000 SECOND privately managed Optional/ compulsory funded 4(ER)+2 (EE) 2002 THIRD privately managed voluntary funded 1998

  5. Preconditions for implementation of pension reform (II pillar) • Regulatory framework • Supervisory capabilities • Market infrastructure (registration, central depository (1995), stock exchanges (TSE in 1996) • Level of market development (banks, insurance)

  8. Impact of pension reform design • For development and structure of financial services INDUSTRY – (higher level of competition, higher volumes, more diversified and viable financial sector) • For development of capital MARKETS (new instruments; more issue(r)s; deeper, more liquid and stable markets, domestic long-term investments, higher savings rate)

  9. Impact for industry 1 • Product design • pension fund structure • parallel products or not (II vs III pillar) • differentiation of accumulation and decumulation stages • annuity vs. programmed withdrawal Provider design • asset managers vs. insurance companies vs. banks • centralized or decentralized provision • fully or partly specialized providers • role of depositories (conflict of interests)

  10. Impact for industry 2 • Choice options • product options (unified, restricted) • switching conditions (full or partial switch or starting with new fund) • Fee structure • single or several fees (entry, exit) • restrictions –ceilings • disclosure requirements (incl expenses) Capital requirements, marketing rules etc
