Experts warn: who in Ukraine faces pension abolition.
According to inkorr.com: The pension system of Ukraine requires serious changes due to the aging population and migration processes. Experts warn that without reforms, it will soon become impossible to ensure pension payments.
'If there were no war... we need to achieve a birth rate of at least double. Not 120-125 thousand, but say about 250 thousand,' said economist Oleg Ustenko.
These alarming data are confirmed by many studies. Demographers emphasize that the concept of simple population reproduction in Ukraine is becoming increasingly unattainable due to the sharp decline in birth rates and the increase in the number of pensioners.
Changes in the demographic structure
The increase in the number of elderly people complicates the demographic balance of the country. The share of youth is gradually decreasing, which negatively affects the processes of population reproduction.
'The share of people over 65 is increasing, alongside a parallel decrease in the number of youth,' the economist emphasized.
Prospects for the pension system
The problem of a lack of funds in the pension fund of Ukraine has existed for a long time, but now it is becoming particularly relevant due to the demographic crisis and other negative factors. Experts are calling for urgent reforms in social and economic sectors to avoid collapse.
It is known that the pension system of Ukraine requires significant changes due to demographic challenges such as aging population and declining birth rates. These problems create a serious imbalance in the social security system and require decisive action to ensure a stable future.
