Overview
- A new Ifop survey for Yomoni published in national coverage finds average public knowledge of the pension system is 4.7 out of 10, signalling widespread confusion.
- Large shares of respondents misunderstand core mechanics of the régime par répartition, with many believing their monthly contributions are individually saved for their own future pensions.
- The Born reform has been officially suspended through the end of 2027, a procedural pause that adds to the pile of recent changes and to public uncertainty.
- Pension policy is already a major theme in the presidential campaign as candidates propose different fixes for financing, contribution levels, and pension amounts.
- Repeated, technical reforms are discouraging people from planning for retirement and raising concrete concerns about how contributions, demographics, and pensioners' living standards will be managed.
