Discover what demographics can tell us about the economy, markets, and the future

In Demographics Unravelled, renowned Macro-Demographics expert Amlan Roy delivers an insightful and timely exploration of the impact that "people characteristics" have on national economies. Considering factors like gender, race, migrant status, family background, and education, the author delves deeply into a subject that drives market behavior and economic variables, including growth, debt, inflation, employment, and productivity. These have national and international policy implications.

In this one-of-a-kind book, you'll discover:

* Why the study of demographics is the hidden key to understanding economic growth, asset prices, and capital flows

* How to use detailed demographics to forecast future scenarios in economics, socioeconomics, geopolitics, and the environment

* The short-, medium-, and long-term effects of consumer and worker behavior

* How understanding demographics is key to understanding health, pensions, migration, sustainability and social policies. It is intimately linked to the Sustainable Development Goals of the UN--Gender, Climate, Poverty and Inequality

Perfect for institutional investors, insurance professionals, economists, and business leaders, Demographics Unravelled will also earn a place in the libraries of academics and students studying a variety of economic disciplines and seeking a one-stop and in-depth discussion of demographics-driven macroeconomic effects.
