Pensions can increase by 3% to 4% in 2023.

According to economic data, pension growth of 3% to 4% in 2023 is okay. If it grows rapidly, the pressure will be unbearable.

Who will bear the increased pension costs is a fundamental question.

Third, historical factors must be comprehensively considered.

In the pension adjustment plans of the past 10 years or so, we have comprehensively implemented adjustments through three methods: fixed-amount adjustment, linked adjustment, and appropriate tilting.

Sudden and drastic changes in adjustment methods are unacceptable to society.

Because the pensions for retired elderly people vary greatly, some elderly people have paid ten years or more of pension insurance and their retirement pensions are only more than 1,000 yuan.

However, some elderly people’s pensions can reach six to seven thousand yuan or even tens of thousands of yuan.

According to the current living standards, a pension of three to four thousand yuan will be relatively comfortable after retirement.

Pension adjustments after retirement should narrow the gap in everyone’s income levels.
