The purpose of the meeting was to discuss several topics, including financial management system, tax regulations, social security system, population aging issue and pension system, and housing security issue in the Netherlands. The EUR participants gave the guests an in-depth explanation and illustration of the situation in the Netherlands, especially in finance and pension. The meeting was meaningful and fruitful for both parties and interesting comparisons between the two countries were made.
There is a chance that the discussion will be further explored this fall and hopefully concrete research might follow.
