Abstract

The pension system in Argentina has undergone important changes in the last decades, from the structural reform in the 1990s to its subsequent re-nationalization and expansion of coverage in the 2000s. Despite its maturity, the system has not been able to clearly align its objectives with the design of the different benefit schemes that compose it and its financing. This article seeks to revisit some of the critical issues related to the organization of the system, the persistence of fragmentation and stratification in its different contributory and non-contributory components, and its financing sustainability. Finally, some guidelines for possible reforms are proposed.
