International research: two new comparative research grants awarded

The Netspar board of directors has awarded two new comparative research grants. The aim of this international comparative research is to learn from abroad and thus contribute to the Dutch pension debate. CRG applications are assessed by the program coordinators. With their recommendations, the following two projects have been awarded:

• Private pension annuities out of savings or housing wealth? A comparative study of Italy and the Netherlands, Mauro Mastrogiacomo (DNB)
• Social Security and Retirement Around the World: Lessons from a Long-Term Collaboration, Adriaan Kalwij, Courtney Coile (UU)
