Slovenia seeking consensus on pension reform through a White Book on pensions

A “White Book on pensions” was presented by the Slovenian government to the public on 13 April 2016. It represents the basis for a public debate on a new pension reform. The cornerstones of the proposals include equal conditions for both genders, rising pensionable age, indexation with inflation, points system and development of the second pillar.
