Germany ready to propose raising retirement age

Germany appears to be seriously reconsidering its plan to raise the retirement age.

A commission of experts appointed by the government to present a proposal for the sustainability of the German pension system, aiming at the abolition of retirement at age 63, a 2:1 ratio of working years to retirement years, but also increasing the number of insured people.

The proposals, which will be officially presented tomorrow, have not gone without reaction.

Expert consultations lasted more than five months, to arrive at 30 proposals for the future of pensions.

This specific reform is one of the main structural changes that Friedrich Merz's government intends to launch.

According to the Commission's calculations, workers will only be able to retire at the age of 67.5 in 2041 and at the age of 68 in 2051. By the 2090s, the retirement age will have reached 70. /CNA
