With the slowdown in the growth rate of the world’s population, the most significant global demographic trend of the 21st century is population ageing. This is driven by three principal forces: declining fertility, increasing longevity, and the progression of large contingents to older ages. But very few countries have the institutions and policies needed to promote economic and social security among older people in a financially sustainable way. This eBook by the Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR) examines selected aspect of the economics of population ageing, focusing on the implications and challenges of securing individual and aggregate wellbeing, and the options countries and individuals have to address these.
