Research on the Impacts of Population Aging on China’s Financial Market and Response Strategies

摘要: 随着我国人口老龄化程度持续加深，老年人口规模不断扩大，人口结构的深刻变化对金融市场的供需结构、产品创新、政策调控等方面产生了全方位影响。本文基于2020~2024年权威统计数据与核心文献，从人口老龄化现状特征出发，重点分析其对养老保险体系、商业银行运营、居民金融资产配置的影响机理，结合当前金融市场应对老龄化的实践困境，提出针对性优化策略。研究表明，人口老龄化既给金融市场带来养老金支付压力、储蓄结构变化等挑战，也催生了养老金融、银发经济等新兴发展机遇；完善多层次养老保险体系、推动金融机构业务转型、加强金融消费者教育是破解当前困境的关键路径。

Abstract: As the degree of population aging in China continues to intensify and the scale of the elderly population keeps expanding, the profound changes in population structure have exerted comprehensive impacts on the supply and demand structure, product innovation, policy regulation and other aspects of the financial market. Based on authoritative statistical data and core literature from 2020 to 2024, this paper starts from the current characteristics of population aging, focuses on analyzing its impact mechanisms on the endowment insurance system, commercial bank operations, and residents’ financial asset allocation, and proposes targeted optimization strategies in combination with the practical dilemmas faced by the current financial market in responding to aging. The research shows that population aging not only brings challenges to the financial market such as pension payment pressure and changes in savings structure, but also spawns emerging development opportunities including elderly care finance and the silver economy; improving the multi-level endowment insurance system, promoting the business transformation of financial institutions, and strengthening financial consumer education are the key paths to addressing the current dilemmas.
