Abstract

[eng] Reforming French Pensions : Transition to a Notional Defined Contribution System. . We simulate the consequences of the transition of the French pension system to a notional defined contribution (NDC) system between 2015 and 2030 using a stylised overlapping-generations general equilibrium model incorporating macroeconomic feedback effects. Introducing an NDC system would reduce financing requirements by around 0.8 points of GDP by 2030. In terms of financing requirements, an NDC system would outperform the existing pay-as-you-go system in case of an increase in life expectancy or a decrease in productivity growth. The two systems are equivalent in the event of a decline in fertility or a rise in the unemployment rate. In an NDC system, however, an increase in the contribution rate has a negative impact on financing requirements because pensions automatically rise in linewith contributions. [fre] Les conséquences de l’introduction entre 2015 et 2030 d’un système par comptes notionnels se substituant à terme aux régimes de retraite français de base et complémentaires sont simulées par un modèle d’équilibre général à générations imbriquées intégrant les effets de bouclage macroéconomique. L’introduction de ce système induirait une réduction des besoins de financement d’environ 0,8 point de PIB à l’horizon 2030. Il réagirait mieux que le système actuel à une augmentation de l’espérance de vie ou à un ralentissement de la productivité et de façon similaire à une baisse de la fécondité ou à une hausse du taux de chômage. A contrario, une hausse des cotisations y aurait un effet négatif sur les besoins de financement du fait d’un accroissement de la valeur des pensions.
