Abstract
In this paper, the “replacement rate transition coefficient” is taken as the breakthrough point for studying the improvement of the integrated insurance system of China’s government and public institutions. We present the basic principles and mathematical model of the transition coefficient for the pension replacement rate based on horizontal and vertical transition characteristics and crossover of the merging of government and public-institution pension insurance using time smoothing methods. We include the quantitative measurement and analysis of the appropriate level of the replacement rate. This paper constructs a model for the total measurement of the pension transition coefficient for pension insurance integration. This is converted into the current policy-transition coefficient-evaluation model and the future moderate-level transition-coefficient measurement model, which is used to calculate and analyze the replacement-rate transition coefficient. The national social security fund rate of return and other parameters are used to calculate the rate of return in the range of 5% to 8%. This can realize the coordinated development of the payment replacement-rate level and the transition coefficient level of personal accounts and occupational annuities. On this basis, we put forward relevant countermeasures and suggestions.
