Abstract: As China enters an aging society, the pension system faces unprecedented challenges. The accelerated aging process increases the pressure on pension payments, exacerbates the imbalance between income and expenditure, and intensifies regional disparities and inequality in coverage. This paper analyzes the basic structure and current situation of China’s pension system, explores the impact of aging on the pension system, and proposes reforms, including delaying the retirement age, increasing contribution rates, optimizing fund investment management, and reforming the pension transfer payment mechanism. The implementation of these measures can effectively enhance the sustainability and fairness of the pension system, ensuring long-term stability in social security.
