Directions (24-30): Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions
given below it.
One of the most critical demographic events in the world today is population
ageing i.e., the process by which the share of older individuals in the total
population starts becoming larger. The ageing 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 ageing would be major global public policy
concern in the twenty-first century posing unprecedented challenges for fiscal,
r’s
monetary and overall macro-economic management.
There is a general consensus that ageing population reduces output growth,
limits economic welfare and lowers employment. One direct effect of population
ageing is labour shortages that are caused by declining birth rates and increasing
life spans. This translates itself into a higher old age dependency ratio (i.e.,
ha
proportion of population aged and older to population aged 15 to 35). Consequently,
with ageing, the economy’s capacity to sustain the elderly population would decline.
An important consequence of this development is reflected in increasing fiscal
pressures through higher government spending on social security, health care
E
and other welfare programmes for the elderly accompanied by lower tax buoyancy
consequent to falling proportions of the productive labour force. Given the hard
d
budget constraint for many developing countries, this could mean lower government
spending for programmes to primarily benefit the young. With public pension
ee
schemes coming under increasing pressure to raise contribution funds or cut the
size of social safety benefits, the issue of fiscal sustainability is one of the principal
challenges facing policy makers worldwide, particularly in the context of
intergenerational equity.
