Living longer and ageing in better health are undoubtedly major accomplishments. The rapid ageing of societies , however, also poses important challenges. This paper provides a comprehensive assessment of the long-term implications of population ageing for public finances, drawing on the OECD Long-Term Model and previous analytical work. It develops an analytical framework to quantify the fiscal effects of ageing, examining rising pressures on pensions, health, and long-term care spending, as well as potential impacts on public revenues and debt dynamics The paper highlights the need for a comprehensive policy response that combines fiscal and structural reforms, providing policy directions to address the fiscal impact of population ageing through promoting healthy ageing, reforming pension systems, enhancing efficiency in healthcare and long-term care, broadening tax bases, and boosting labour force participation among","cbCairmmWDaQlaFQ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairmmWDaQlaFQ","pdf",5098129,"English","# ABSTRACT\n## Fiscal implications and long-term assessment\n## Policy responses and reform directions","[{\"question\":\"What are the main fiscal pressures caused by population ageing?\",\"answer\":\"Population ageing increases pressures on pensions, health, and long-term care spending, with effects also seen in public revenues and debt dynamics.\"},{\"question\":\"Which analytical tools does the paper use?\",\"answer\":\"The paper draws on the OECD Long-Term Model and previous analytical work to quantify the fiscal effects of ageing.\"},{\"question\":\"What policy responses does the paper recommend?\",\"answer\":\"It recommends combining fiscal and structural reforms, including promoting healthy ageing, reforming pension systems, improving healthcare and long-term care efficiency, broadening tax bases, and boosting labour force participation among older workers and under-represented groups.\"}]","Ageing populations, their fiscal implications and policy responses - No. 1844 - Working paper | PDF",151,[146,150,154,158,162,166],{"page_no":8,"url":147,"width":148,"height":149},"https://res-academy.cache.wpscdn.com/upload/kdocshare/2026-11-07/f86a98f768ddc8f12891d36e9a3be495.webp",983,1272,{"page_no":14,"url":151,"width":152,"height":153},"https://res-academy.cache.wpscdn.com/upload/kdocshare/2026-11-07/ce4cec19e223fba62e207e26892a7abb.webp",982,1388,{"page_no":81,"url":155,"width":156,"height":157},"https://res-academy.cache.wpscdn.com/upload/kdocshare/2026-11-07/ab9c119ffd1c2cf338c8c0a7fdcf886a.webp",981,1387,{"page_no":19,"url":159,"width":160,"height":161},"https://res-academy.cache.wpscdn.com/upload/kdocshare/2026-11-07/8c2429a7ab8b2e07abf8b80c76348750.webp",980,1385,{"page_no":24,"url":163,"width":164,"height":165},"https://res-academy.cache.wpscdn.com/upload/kdocshare/2026-11-07/84179e20474cc7cf856ea7327405fe91.webp",979,1384,{"page_no":29,"url":167,"width":168,"height":169},"https://res-academy.cache.wpscdn.com/upload/kdocshare/2026-11-07/cfcac79ac684afff0f2db4529c8cd080.webp",978,1383]
