Abstract
The study presents an assessment of the impact of structural factors on the financial stability of pension systems in European countries. The purpose of the study is to determine the internal structural factors that have the most significant impact on the financial stability of pension systems in European countries. A review of the scientific literature dealing with the study of the financial stability of European pension systems is carried out. The correlation between the concepts of "financial stability" and "financial resiliency" is determined, the structural factors of pension models are identified and their grouping is carried out. The ranking of European pension systems by the level of their stability (including periods of financial crises) is carried out. The reasons for the decline in the stability and resiliency of European pension systems at this stage of development are identified. The study shows the internal structural factors that have a positive or negative impact on the degree of financial stability and financial resiliency of European pension systems. The conclusions obtained in the study can be used in the formation of the state pension policy of European countries and the choice of directions for reforming pension systems
