摘要：Taking into account the increasing life expectancy and educational and professional formation, the pension systems in the European Union countries face strong financial pressures due to the decreasing period the insured persons contribute to the pension funds and to the increasing period the citizens benefit by the pecuniary rights of these contributions. Correlating these issues with one of the main objectives of the European Union social policy ¨C improving old men¡¯ life quality -, the public authorities of these countries identified the necessity to reform the pension systems. Therefore a series of procedures were adopted to answer to the main challenge of some pension systems that no longer satisfy the need of an ageing European society: providing sustainability by enlarging the contributive base and limiting the eligibility criteria. The effects of these reforms will be visible on long-term, therefore it is obvious and necessary to implement specific measures as soon as possible. Thus the report regarding the adequacy and sustainability of pensions in the European Union, published the European Commission in 2006 shows that many member states are in the early stages of pension systems reforming, and other made important steps toward it.
