In this study we use a long run macroeconomic model for Austria to simulate the effects of aging on employment, output … growth, and the solvency of the social security system. By disaggregating the population into six age cohorts and modelling … baseline scenario, we perform three alternative simulations that highlight the effects of aging from different perspectives …
