In order to answer these questions, a network of researchers in thirty-three countries in six continents are developing comprehensive economic data that is being used to answer many of the basic questions about the effects of population aging on national economies. This seminar will present some of the key findings that are emerging from this project.
Andrew Mason is Professor of Economics, University of Hawaii at Manoa and Senior Fellow at the East-West Center, Honolulu, Hawaii. He is a member of the Center for the Economics and Demography of Aging (CEDA) at the University of California, Berkeley. He co-directs the National Transfer Account project, an international network of researchers from more than thirty countries who are developing a comprehensive approach to studying the systems on which countries rely to meet the economic needs of children and the elderly. National Transfer Accounts (www.ntaccounts.org) are being used to study the evolution of familial support systems, public pensions, health care, and education systems and their influence on economic growth, generational equity, and other features of the economy.
