Research Abstract

The research focuses on the retirement and pension systems of Japanese colleges and universities which primarily rest on the traditional defined benefit (DB) design of long-term savings, as well as individual preferences and knowledge associated with the type of schemes and benefits. A survey was conducted to address these issues with full-time faculty, researchers and administrators in Japanese colleges and universities as the sample target. The data set helps usunderstand the structuralpatterns and factors that are likely affecting the level of knowledge as well as preferences associated with individual choice of retirement benefits. The study result provides a means for all institutions of higher education to design sustainable retirement benefit systems, which at the same time meet the current and future needs of retirees in the country.
