GBI: what are the implications of an ageing population for Business?

Abstract

At the beginning of the 21st century, governments, societies and the business activities of most developed countries will have to face the challenge that an ageing population presents. This trend is easily predictable thanks to a lot of demographic patterns, and must be seen as an opportunity for many organizations rather than a burden. This phenomenon raises questions about the effect it will have on the labor and financial markets, and whether it will necessitate the creation of another pension scheme.
