Fiscal Challenges of Population Aging: The Asian Experience
نویسنده
چکیده
One of the most critical demographic events in the world today is population aging—the process by which the share of older individuals in the total population starts becoming larger. The aging phenomenon, which has been initially experienced by developed countries, is now steadily approaching the developing world. Projections show that over the next five decades, world median age will continue to increase, resulting in enhanced old-age dependency ratios in all parts of the world. Thus, population aging would be a major global public policy concern in the 21st century posing unprecedented challenges for fiscal, monetary, and overall macroeconomic management.
