  2. The Health and Retirement Study The University of Michigan Health and Retirement Study (HRS) is a longitudinal panel study. It surveys a representative sample of more than 26,000 Americans over the age of 50 every two years. HRS explores the changes in labour force participation and the health transitions that individuals undergo toward the end of their work lives and in the years that follow. Since launch in 1992, the study has collected information about income, work, assets, pension plans, health insurance, disability, physical health and functioning, cognitive functioning, and health care expenditures. Through its unique and in-depth interviews, the HRS provides an invaluable and growing body of multidisciplinary data that researchers can use to address important questions about the challenges and opportunities of aging.

  4. HRS Compatible Surveys English Longitudinal Study on Ageing (ELSA)Survey of Health, Ageing, and Retirement in Europe (SHARE)Korean Longitudinal Study on Aging (KLoSA)Indonesia Family Life Survey (IFLS)Chinese Health, Aging, and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS)TILDA - The Irish Longitudinal Study on AgeingJapanese Study on Aging and Retirement (J-STAR)Mexican Health and Ageing Study (MHAS)Study on Global Ageing and Adult Health (SAGE)Longitudinal Aging Study in India (LASI)

  5. ELSA Publications – (a very selective sample) Understanding pensions: cognitive function, numerical ability and retirement saving, IFS Working Papers, W06/05. Signs of ageing, The Actuary. Pensions, pensioners and pensions policy: financial security in UK retirement savings?, March 2004, IFS Briefing Notes, BN48. The impact of occupational pensions on retirement age, Journal of Social Policy The role of waist circumference in predicting disability in preretirement age adults, International Journal of Obesity

  6. HAGIS – way ahead? Establish managerial structure Work with ELSA and TILDA Develop USPs for HAGIS sample frame and linkage activity measurement financial literacy crowd data collection genetics Collect support within Scotland – Yammer network Talk to potential funders Submit application to NIA by June 2012 If application successful, pilot study in the field by late 2013

  7. Agent-Based Modelling (Microsimulation) Answers “what if” questions. Based on individuals, households, firms etc. Derive synthetic population or draw from survey data Static or dynamic Accounting or behavioural Develop scenarios for decision-makers

  8. UK Microsimulation Models Microsimulation models in Government • IGOTM (Inter-Governmental Tax-Benefit Model) at HM Treasury • PSM (Policy Simulation Model) at DWP • PENSIM (Pensions Simulation Model) at DWP • MM (Macro Model) at Bank of England Microsimulation models at IFS • TAXBEN (IFS Tax-Benefit Model) • SPAIN (Simulation Program for the Analysis of Incentives) • SPIT (Simulation Program for Indirect Taxation)
