CONNECTIONS BETWEEN ACTIVE AGING AND FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENTS

Journal of Financial and Monetary Economics, 2015, vol. 2, issue 1, 92-97

Abstract: In this article I present the elements that define active aging, the causes of the emergence of this concept. I also highlight some impediments that hinder the accomplishment of the active ageing objective. I also bring forward some of the priorities aiming to support the accomplishment of the active ageing objectives. Active ageing presumes, among others, the existence of an optimal state of health of the old people. The foreign direct investment companies can support or hinder active ageing. One solution for the prevention of population ageing is supporting the values of family and implicitly, stimulating the birth rate. The analysis shows that in Romania, population is undergoing a rather intense process of ageing, which will burden heavily the economy. This evolution is explained by the trend of the natural growth rate and by the high number of abortions.
