According to the latest analysis by the OECD, by 2050 there will be 53 retired people for 100 active workers, compared to a one in three ratio in 2015. This presents challenges to the state pension system, as maintaining the present level of pensions and quality of life of pensioners will become increasingly difficult in an ageing society with a dwindling workforce. As a result, retirement savings and self-reliance will play an increasingly important role, but what are the prospects of young Hungarians in this regard? What are the most urgent challenges in the self-reliance and savings market, and how do Hungarian top executives see all this?
