Greece fares the worst among the developed countries in Europe regarding the adverse effects of the demographic problem, according to a European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) report.
In Greece there are 36 people aged over 65 for every 100 citizens of working age.
The reduction of young people’s share will diminish the annual increase of the per capita GDP by about 0.4 percentage points on average in 2024-2050.
Demographic changes will pressure the pension system and require measures for aged workers’ inclusion, the attraction of migrants, and investment in technology and productivity, says the EBRD.Â
