Aged Population and Demographic Changes, Possible Threats to and Policies for Longevity
ÖZ
The global population is aging at an unpredicted rate with a high decline in fertility. Many of the European Union and Asian countries experience highest life expectancy as compared to the rest of the world. The changing age structure in developing countries has yet started to give an alarming situation. This paper will analyse the possible changes in certain variables including labour force participation, pension system and retirement age. Special emphasis will be placed to a variety of demographic and policy forces that are of vital importance in evaluating the impact of population aging to stop gender discrimination in pension funds. It ends with some policy options dedicated to forming active policies that are essential in coping with the rapidly increasing number of elderly in the world.
