Pension Trends provides a statistical backdrop for the debate on pensions. It looks at both economic and social factors that influence changes in pension provision and pension income over time.

The publication of the 2005 volume of Pension Trends set the overall scene. It included chapters on the development of pension legislation, demographic factors that affect demand for pensions, labour market trends, pensioner income and expenditure, expectations of retirement, state and private pension provision, pension contributions, pension and non-pension wealth, employer pension provision, pension fund investment and pensions in the National Accounts.

Updated chapters are published in groups every three months, on the website only. The updated chapters include new, topical analysis where relevant, and new chapters are provided on emerging areas of interest. Key chapters are updated annually, with others appearing less frequently.
