Abstract

[fre] Hérités de la période coloniale, les systèmes de retraite du Maghreb sont composés de régimes obligatoires et publics de nature contributive. Les taux de pension sont élevés, mais la retraite moyenne reste faible et seule une partie de la population est couverte en raison de l’importance de l’emploi informel. Le choc démographique provoqué par la chute de la fécondité et l’allongement de l’espérance de vie devrait rapprocher le ratio de dépendance de la population des 60 ans et plus de celui de l’Europe et menacer l’équilibre financier, déjà fragile, des caisses de retraite. Les gouvernements affichent leur volonté de réformer les systèmes de retraite mais les processus sont inégalement engagés dans les trois pays. [eng] Pensions systems in North African countries, inherited from colonial times, are made up of obligatory and public contributive regimes. With pension rates slightly higher than European ones, the average pension is nevertheless low. Moreover, only a range of the population is covered because of the informal employment’s size. Demographic shock caused by fertility fall and increase in life expectancy should bring together the dependency ratio of the over sixty years old population to the European one. This demographic shock should also threaten the weak financial equilibrium of pension offices. Governments are determined to reform pensions systems, but processes have started unequally in the three countries.
