<dc:description xml:lang="es">International report offering a comprehensive analysis of tax-financed (Tier 1) pension systems across the Asia-Pacific region. It reviews coverage, adequacy, design, and sustainability, comparing universal, means-tested, and benefit-tested models. The study assesses their impact on poverty reduction, wellbeing, economic development, and social cohesion, and introduces an effectiveness index combining coverage and benefit levels. It also examines political factors influencing pension expansion and presents cost simulations for gradually implementing universal schemes in low- and middle-income countries, concluding that universal pensions are both viable and socially beneficial in rapidly ageing societies</dc:description>
