La crescente preoccupazione che caratterizza l'Italia riguardo un futuro pensionistico incerto porta i cittadini a ricercare soluzioni alternative in grado di garantire una maggiore stabilità economica anche successivamente alla cessazione dell'attività lavorativa. Le difficoltà riguardanti la sostenibilità del sistema pensionistico italiano risultano sempre più evidenti, e l'aumento progressivo del costo della vita rende lampante l'insufficienza della sola pensione obbligatoria di base. Per questa ragione, sempre più persone si affidano alla previdenza complementare: i fondi pensione o i piani pensionistici individuali. Il presente elaborato si propone di fornire un quadro generale dei tre pilastri della previdenza italiana, spostando successivamente l'attenzione ai fondi pensione aperti. L'obiettivo finale è di comprendere a pieno i vantaggi, fiscali e non, di questa forma complementare. Si procede, pertanto, con una stima dei rischi e dei rendimenti dei fondi presi in esame. A sostegno della tesi, si conclude con una previsione di longevità basata sul il modello di Gompertz. I dati utilizzati sono stati reperiti dalla Commissione di Vigilanza sui Fondi Pensione (COVIP) e dall'Istituto Nazionale di Statistica (ISTAT), inoltre, alcuni passaggi fondamentali dell'elaborato fanno riferimento agli studi del Ricercatore Universitario di Finanza Computazionale Paolo Coletti.
I fondi pensione aperti: dall'adesione al riscatto, un'analisi dei principali vantaggi della previdenza complementare.

Abstract
The growing concern in Italy over an uncertain future of pensions is leading citizens to seek alternative solutions capable of ensuring greater economic stability even after the end of working life. The difficulties related to the sustainability of the Italian pension system are becoming increasingly evident, and the progressive increase in the cost of living highlights that the mandatory basic pension is insufficient. For this reason, more and more people are relying on supplementary pension schemes: pension funds or individual pension plans. This paper aims to provide a general overview of the three pillars of the Italian pension system, subsequently focusing on open pension funds. The ultimate goal is a comprehensive understanding of the advantages, both fiscal and non-fiscal, of this complementary form of pension provision. To this end, an assessment of the risks and returns of the pension funds under consideration is carried out. In support of this thesis, the paper concludes with a longevity forecast based on the Gompertz model. The data used were obtained from the Pension Funds Supervisory Commission (COVIP) and the Italian National Institute of Statistics (ISTAT). Furthermore, some key passages of the paper refer to the studies of Paolo Coletti, a University Researcher in Computational Finance.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
