Following an agreement reached in June 2016 on common principles guiding reforms to strengthen pension sustainability, Eurozone finance ministers discussed on 20 March 2017 benchmarking as a tool to provide further support and impetus to reforms in this area, so as to foster the fiscal sustainability of pension systems and economic convergence. The Eurogroup agreed to benchmark the fiscal sustainability of Eurozone member states' pension systems against the best performers of the Euro area. |
