Report: Foreign-born pensioners receive thousands of kronor less every month
The difference in pension between those born abroad and those born in Sweden has increased significantly in recent decades, according to a new report by insurance provider Folksam. For people born in 1957 abroad, the difference amounts to almost SEK 5,700 in their pension as a whole per month before tax compared to those born in Sweden. For people born in 1937, the corresponding difference was only SEK 650 per month. Listen to one of the representatives from the insurance company behind the report and the head of Sweden's pensions agency to hear what's driving the pensions gap.
