Talk, Univeridad del Pacífico, Lima, Peru

The working paper presented was “Do informal workers of small firms self-insurance forretirement?”. There, we explore how individuals working in small firms in Peru decide to plan and save for retirement in different options.

We found that individuals do have a retirement options portafolio where having an own business is the preferred option.
