About this product
Product Information
In The Retirement Challenge, influential former White House economists Martin Neil Baily and Benjamin H. Harris explore America's outdated retirement system and explain how improving retirement requires changes by families, employers, and policymakers alike. The central premise of the book is that the only plausible path to success is to build on the current system, with improvements to both public programs, retirement saving accounts, and private insurance markets.

Reviews
"Martin Baily and Ben Harris have written the definitive account of what is wrong with retirement today and what needs to be done to fix it. While solidly grounded in economic reasoning and evidence, they never lose sight of the important role that retirement policy should play in efficiency, equity, and happiness more broadly. They do not just describe problems but offer bold and compelling solutions." -- Jason Furman, Aetna Professor of the Practice of Economic Policy, Harvard University and Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers (2013-17)"Martin Baily and Ben Harris have written a critique of U.S. retirement policy that is clear, compelling, and notably comprehensive - covering public and private retirement programs, work among the elderly, end-of-life care, and a variety of financial instruments such as reverse mortgages and private annuities. Their experience as researchers and high-level policy makers leads to a seamless blend of academic analysis, policy recommendations, and descriptions of how the changes would benefit ordinary citizens." -- William Gale, Director, Retirement Security Project, Brookings Institution"This well-written book should be required reading for anyone who cares about ensuring that all Americans can enjoy a secure old age. Baily and Harris document the challenges to achieving that goal and provide a practical, evidence-based set of recommendations for meeting it that should appeal to policymakers on both sides of the aisle." -- Katharine G.
