Zusammenfassung:	This paper provides a comparative summary of the payout phase of pension systems in five countries - Australia, Chile, Denmark, Sweden, and Switzerland. All five countries have large pension systems with mandatory or quasi-mandatory retirement savings schemes.

The paper summarizes the experience of these countries and highlights the lessons they offer to other countries
