Report Highlights

Developing countries now display some of the fastest rates of demographic change. By 2050, four of the top 10 oldest countries (by population percentage aged over 60) globally will be developing markets, compared to none in 2012. Such rapid aging will see many developing countries grow old before they are rich.

Japan and China will serve as the world's "test cases" for population aging. This is because both are experiencing population aging at unprecedented rates, yet they face the distinct challenges of the developed and developing world, respectively. The experiences of these two countries will therefore be instructive to others globally.

Keywords: evolving, landscapes, aging, population, seniors, baby boomers, retirement, Asia, Japan, China, empty nesters, spending power, retail, layouts, active, healthy, generation, life expectancy, individualism, packaging, ergonomics, multigenerational, leisure.
