It uses this framework to describe the architecture of the 11 economies’ pension systems. The second indicator covers basic, targeted and minimum income systems, showing the values of these systems. The third indicator looks at the mandatory earnings-related pension systems showing how benefits are determined in these schemes and the range of earnings that are covered. The final two indicators
