In Dnews.gr, the Centre for Liberal Studies (KEFiM), as part of the Epicenter network, presented its latest study showing that 43% of pension expenditure in Greece in 2025 continues to be funded directly from the regular state budget rather than social security contributions. The analysis highlights similar unfunded liabilities at EU level, where 79% of staff pensions are paid from the current EU budget, and calls for structural reforms including stronger capitalisation to ease long-term pressure on taxpayers and public finances.
