Abstract

The largest cohort of Argentines has already been born (around 1993). 2030 is projected to mark the end of the youth society in Argentina as youth will no longer be the dominant demographic group. Policy options for an ageing future include closing the gender gap to maintain productivity, and increasing taxes to maintain fiscal balance. The paper is written by members of the National Transfer Account Network which brings together researchers from different regions of the world. National Transfer Accounts (NTAs) is a new methodology that represents disaggregation of National Accounts by age, gender, and socioeconomic status.
