Abstract (english)
Pension beneficiaries who have been granted pensions under more favourable conditions account for 15.5% of the total number of pensioners In Croatia. Expenditures for the payment of their pensions, financed directly from the budget, accounted for about 20% of total expenditures for pensions and other retirement benefits in 2008. The bulk of expenditures for the privileged pensions (about HRK 4.8bn or 14.5% of total pension expenditures) relate to the beneficiaries of homeland war veterans’ pensions, participating with 5% in total pension beneficiaries. Their number doubled over the last six years. A widening of the gap between the privileged and “regular” average pensions is mostly due to the socalled “parliamentary pensions, the pensions of the full members of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts (HAZU), and homeland war veterans’ pensions. The privileged status does not only relate to the pension amount, but generally it also includes shorter service periods compared with those of other pension beneficiaries. Early retirement leads to erosion of contribution revenues, but also to the outflow of the working-age population from the economically active population group. Differences between privileged and non-privileged pension beneficiaries cause inequality and inequity in the system, and increasingly burden the state budget. Therefore, policy makers should review the pension amounts of privileged categories of beneficiaries and control the total number of new recipients of these pensions.
