Abstract

The present paper reviews the social security pilot in Jilin and Hei Longjiang that was carried out between 2004 and 2005. The pilot in the two provinces has basically achieved its main objectives, but there are still some unsolved problems, the most severe being lack of effective investment of the funds accumulated by individual accounts. During periods of high economic growth and high growth in average wages, this problem might undermine the partially‐funded security system. To this end, the paper makes some suggestions, one of which is to introduce the notional defined contribution system. (Edited by Zhinan Zhang)
