As the most populous country in the world, China has been experiencing demographic change for nearly two decades due to country’s the plummeting birth rate and a rise in life expectancy. According to World Bank data, China's total fertility rate was 1.62 in 2016, far behind the global average of 2.43. The lingering consequences of the previous strict family planning policies combined with increasing longevity have meant that China will have to confront the challenges of a rapidly ageing population at a relatively early stage of its economic development, which limits the financial resources for supporting the elderly.

摘要

As the most populous country in the world, China has been experiencing demographic change for nearly two decades due to country’s the plummeting birth rate and a rise in life expectancy. According to World Bank data, China's total fertility rate was 1.62 in 2016, far behind the global average of 2.43. The lingering consequences of the previous strict family planning policies combined with increasing longevity have meant that China will have to confront the challenges of a rapidly ageing population at a relatively early stage of its economic development, which limits the financial resources for supporting the elderly.
