- financial sustainability of pension system.
High-quality empirical research and active research cooperation
Our research addresses pension provision and related phenomena from a social and an economic perspective. A major strength of our research is that we have access to diverse and internationally unique datasets. We are committed to deliver high-impact research communications whose aim is to inform decision-making and to foster public debate in society.
We have active collaboration with universities and other research and expert organisations, and we contribute to joint projects with outside partners. We make available data for collaborative research ventures and provide small-scale funding for research projects. We also offer opportunities for researcher visits.
Most of our research is subjected to peer review. The Finnish Centre for Pensions is committed to follow the guidelines for good scientific practice drawn up by the Finnish National Board on Research Integrity and to comply with the peer review standards set by the Federation of Finnish Learned Societies.
