English term or phrase: benefits are targeted
Hola:

Estoy traduciendo un texto sobre las pensiones de la Unión Europea. No sé muy bien cómo traducir "targeted" en este caso en concreto. He optado por "específicos". ¿Qué opináis?

the first pillar is represented by the basic mandatory programmes introduced through legislation. Usually financed on a PAYGO basis, these programmes are public in that they are established by law and managed by a public body. They often have redistributive aims. In some of them, benefits are targeted or flat-rate; in others they are income-related and/or contribution-related.

Ahí va mi propuesta:

En algunos de ellos, las prestaciones son específicas o uniformes; en otros, se calcula en función de los ingresos y/o la cotización.

Un saludo y muchas gracias por la ayuda :)

Explanation:
en contraste con los dos últimos, que son relativos

entiendo que el target es el objetivo a que van destinados los fondos, su función, su aplicación...
