AnnotationThis article briefly introduces a special themed section to this journal which examines the nature, extent and direction of pension reforms in the UK and other Anglo Saxon nations. The seven articles together look at retirement pensions and their reform in the UK, USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. With population ageing on the increase, policy across all these nations has sought to encourage increased individual saving for retirement, although the way in which this has played out has differed from country to country.
