We ask:
Which types of couples' careers emerged in East and West Germany and how are they linked to women's later life incomes? 👵🏻💶
How does the cohort of current pensioners differ from those who are about to enter retirement within the next years?

Applying Multichannel-Sequence-Analysis (MCSQA) to SHARE-RV data (n=2020), we identify 7 clusters of couples` employment and pension earning point (EP) trajectories. Here, East 🇩🇪 generally favored dual-earners, West 🇩🇪 male-breadwinner and 1.5 earner constellations.

2. Public expenditure on State Pensions in the UK is among the lowest in the OECD; this reflects the fact that the main state pension for current pensioners is nearly £40 per week less than the government’s own poverty threshold (the means-tested minimum guarantee Pension Credit)
3. The new Single Tier Pension is just above the single rate of Pension Credit but due to transitional rules, it will be decades before women generally receive as much state pension as men.
