The Economic Consequences of demographic change

As population growth has played a decisive role in the success of economies, so ageing workforces now pose an acute challenge across the developed and emerging worlds. This interactive dashboard walks CE Advance subscribers through the challenges, the potential solutions and which countries we think will be the winners and losers from this momentous demographic shift.

Updated Dashboards

  • EM Financial Risk Indicators - Available to CE Advance subscribers, the latest quarterly update shows a general easing of risks across all regions except Africa. The dashboard has also been redesigned to make it faster to learn how a country/region's risk has evolved.

  • China Activity Proxy - A new month of data and a new chart showing the wedge between official GDP and the CAP; illustrating how policy makers face challenges in their attempt to drive and how the government's targets grow increasingly out of reach. 

  • Australia and New Zealand - New data and charts have been added to the dashboard to allow for a clearer picture of labour market conditions in these economies.

  • US Scenarios - The scenarios were reset and redefined at the start of 2025. See how Trump's first weeks of presidency have moved the needle closer to stagflation and away from the "goldilocks" economy seen at the end of 2024.

All dashboards with historical data, our forecasts and proprietary indicators are constantly updated with the latest figures. CE Advance subscribers can access all of our proprietary indicators here and our latest forecasts can be accessed from our Key Forecasts Dashboard or from our selection of Country & Regional Dashboards.
