Writing in its latest Annual Economic Report, the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) has warned that the global economy risks entering a new era of high inflation. “The key for central banks is to act quickly and decisively before inflation becomes entrenched,” says Agustín Carstens, General Manager of the BIS.

Demographic developments will put the finances of the pension insurance scheme under pressure in future. The Bundesbank’s experts present long-term simulations on this topic in the current Monthly Report. These simulations illustrate how the government plans to achieve a permanently stable replacement rate of 48% would affect the pension contribution rate and the federal budget. They also show the effects of two reform options on the replacement rate, the contribution rate and the federal budget. Both options are international standard practice. One ties pensions in payment to inflation, whilst the other links the retirement age to rising life expectancy.

The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) is based in Basel and was established in 1930. Only central banks and comparable institutions can become members of this, the oldest international financial organisation. The Bundesbank is one of currently 63 members. The Bundesbank president automatically has a seat on the BIS Board of Directors.
