A shrinking working-age population across the developed world is <\/strong>putting <\/strong>long-term economic growth and price stability at risk<\/strong>, top central bankers warned at the Jackson Hole symposium last week, the Financial Times<\/a> reports. The heads of the Bank of Japan, the European Central Bank, and the Bank of England each flagged labor shortages driven by aging societies as a structural challenge that will worsen in the coming decades.<\/p>\n

(Tap or click the headline above to read this story with all of the links <\/strong>to our background as well as external sources.)<\/p>\n

But there\u2019s an obvious, albeit unpopular in the current political climate, fix \u2014 foreign <\/strong>workers. <\/strong>With birth rates at historic lows and people living longer across developed nations, countries have ballooning financial responsibilities to support growing retired populations and a shrinking workforce to help fund them. The entrance of more foreign workers would serve a \u201ccrucial role\u201d in addressing this, European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde argued.<\/p>\n

Lagarde also attributed the Eurozone\u2019s \u201cunexpectedly\u201d strong recovery from the <\/strong>pandemic to a rise in foreign workers<\/strong>, who accounted for more than half of labor force growth since 2022, despite only representing 9% of it. Looking ahead, Lagarde warned that without an uptick in foreign workers, the Eurozone could see 3.4 mn fewer working-age people by 2040, which would have serious knock-on effects for both labor market conditions and output.<\/p>\n

The impact on Japan \u2014 famous for its shrinking population \u2014 from foreign workers has <\/strong>been even greater<\/strong>, with the country\u2019s tiny foreign worker population \u2014 accounting for only 3% of the total labor force \u2014 being responsible for half of recent labor force growth, Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda also said at the summit. Nonetheless, despite the clear economic benefit \u2014 and maybe necessity \u2014 the proposal is still a mostly unpopular one for the voting public, much like in the EU.<\/p>\n

Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey argued that the demographic issue facing the <\/strong>UK and others has not been given the importance it deserves. <\/strong>The UK could see 40% of its population above the age of 64 by 2040, which will come coupled with a fall in labor participation rates, he explained. But while there\u2019s a growing agreement from the top central bankers, political sentiment in the world\u2019s most developed nations is yet to shift, with anti-migrant rhetoric becoming an increasingly common part of electioneering by parties of all stripes.<\/p>\n
