Pension gap of statutory pensions by age
Description
The graph below shows the share of men (left, red bars) and women (right, green bars) who have recently taken their retirement pension according to their age. Half of men and women take their pension at age 65: 48% of men and 52% of women. The share of pensioners under 62 years of age is slightly higher for men (25%) than for women (19%). In the other age groups, we see an almost equal share of men and women. The average gross pension amounts for men (left, red bars) and women (right, green bars) are presented below by age. The absolute difference between the two is indicated in grey. This is therefore the pension gap in euro. You can select the age for which you want to view the pension amounts yourself. The overall situation for all ages is displayed by default. To better understand the pension amounts on which the pension gap is based, we look at the distribution of pensions among men (left, red bars) and women (right, green bars) by age. The x-axis divides the pension into classes of EUR 500 and the y-axis shows the percentage of pensioners with a pension in the class in question. You can select the age for which you want to view the pension distribution yourself. The overall situation for all ages is displayed by default.
