摘要:In the last decade, the financial situation of pension funds in Tunisia has worsenedbecause of demographic and economic factors. These changes will make solidaritybetween generations more difficult and will prompt the government to institutesome reforms regulating basic pension. This scenario of probable changes involvesvoluntary contributions to retirement saving schemes offered by financialinstitutionsin order to supplement future pensions of workers. The aim of thispaper is to understand Tunisian working population’s savings behaviour, referring,for this purpose, to microeconomic factors, while assessing the current status oflife insurance and funded pension schemes in Tunisia. To this end, a survey1 wascarried out on a representative population of Tunisian individuals affiliated to thethree main public pension schemes and approached through savings theories andthe Life Cycle Model (Modigliani 1954), in particular.
