Abstract: According to the 14th Five-Year Plan for the development of human resources and social security undertakings, the financing mechanism of endowment insurance for urban and rural residents should be optimized, the interest calculation method of individual accounts should be standardized, and the mechanism for determining the benefits and the regular adjustment of basic pension should be fully implemented. By constructing an actuarial model, this paper examines how the comprehensive reform of the financing and safeguard mechanism of endowment insurance for urban and rural residents affects the alignment between the financial subsidy structure and the subsidy policy orientation. The findings show that coordinating and adjusting the government’s subsidy model for contributions, increasing collective subsidies, reforming individual account interest calculation methods, and increasing the number of years of basic pension can significantly improve the compatibility of subsidy structure and policy incentive orientation, and that coordinating the increase in the growth rate of basic pension and the elderly basic pension will enhance the compatibility between the subsidy structure and the policy’s inclusive orientation. The sensitivity test results are stable, and the minimum standard growth rate of basic pension, the minimum contribution grade and the accounting interest rate of individual accounts have a strong influence on the fiscal subsidy, while the other factors have a weaker influence.

Key words: old-age insurance for urban and rural residents, financial subsidies, incentive orientation, inclusive orientation
