The findings of the study have been discussed by Poland’s conservative Gazeta Polska Codziennie newspaper.
Global Retirement Index
Compiled by Natixis Investment Managers and CoreData Research, the Global Retirement Index is based on four key aspects of welfare in retirement: health, quality of life, material well-being, and financial standing.
Researchers looked at the performance of 44 countries across these four areas, as reflected by relevant indicators.
The results were number-crunched to produce the final overall ranking.
Now in its 10th edition, the Global Retirement Index includes International Monetary Fund (IMF) advanced economies, members of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), and the BRIC countries of Brazil, Russia, India and China.
Poland jumps to 26th in 2022 Global Retirement Index
Poland has clocked up a score of 64 percent out of a possible 100 in the 2022 Global Retirement Index, advancing to 26th place in the country league table.
Notably, Poland jumped four places to 7th in the subindex showing the material well-being of retirees, with a score of 75 percent, according to the report.
These results “prove that the government’s social programmes are bringing results,” Gazeta Polska Codziennie said.
Meanwhile, Norway topped the 2022 Global Retirement Index, ahead of Switzerland and Iceland.
Over the past decade, the biggest advances in retirement security have been made by Ireland, New Zealand, Iceland, the Czech Republic and Estonia, the study found.
