DAC 2013: Robert Ironside – Debt and Demographics – The Wild Cards

In a session that will have you at the edge of your seat, find out which investors will profit from a declining world population and who will lose. If you’re focused on a younger demographic, you may want to rethink your strategy...

Big changes in demographics will soon affect everything—business valuation, stock and bond values,  real estate, exports and family values.

In 2050, 2 billion people worldwide will be over age 60—it’s the fastest growing age cohort in the world. By the year 2070, the greatest population reduction since the Black Plague in Europe will emerge. Massive migration to urban areas will fuel the need for food, care, and housing in old age in under-developed nations. China, for example, has one of the fastest aging populations in the world— they will be old before rich. The developed world’s influence will shrink.

Knowledge Bureau is pleased to welcome Robert Ironside, PhD. to speak on this important topic at the Distinguished Advisor Conference.

Robert Ironside, PhD. has taught and consulted in over twenty countries around the world and worked extensively for all of the large Canadian banks, the Government of India on financial sector reform, several of China’s largest banks, as well as banks in Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.
