Population ageing in the Netherlands: Demographic and Financial arguments for a balanced approach

This seems a feasible increase that can be realised without much policy effort. Employment levels for
20-64-year-olds have risen sharply in the past 30 years, from 59 to 73%. On the basis of cohort
behaviour, throughout the recent recession, we can expect it to continue climbing to 79% in around
2040. Women were entirely responsible for the past increase and will be largely responsible for this
future growth.

Letting go of government funding as the basic principle in the ageing debate can have an illuminating
effect and can restore the balance.
