What the Non-Marketed Security Rate is

The « non-marketed security rate » (NSR) is a tool aiming at evaluating an important mission of the social State: sustaining and enhancing the economic security of the populations, the ones that assure them against the risk of Poverty, resulting from the loss of income. It has been built in order to distinguish between the outcomes of social protection systems in different countries and territories. The NSR relates to the non-marketed security in that it corresponds to incomes that are guaranteed outside the markets. These incomes encompass both social protection strict sensu and securities corresponding to aids, assistances and social rights to down and out persons assured by local communities and social action organisms. The economic insecurity endured by poor people is deducted from this rate, which result in the NSR of the population.

Reading : These two graphs explicitly show the positive and negative elements that enter in the composition of the non-marketed security. In the United States in 2000, the NSR is negative and is -1% of the average disposable income of the active employed people (that is, the sum of pension and unemployment security 9,2%, disease and disability 1.2%, family and poors aid 1.7%, minus poors’ insecurity 14.3%). In contrast, the NSR in France is 19.8% of the average reference income à the same date (with pension and unemployment security of 21.7%, disease 1.5%, family 4.8%, minus poors’ insecurity 8.2%).
