The Impact of Population Aging on Regional Economic Growth and Adaptive Reforms of the Social Security System

The intensification of population aging has posed multifaceted challenges to regional economic growth, urgently necessitating comprehensive reforms in the social security system. Confronting the declining regional economic vitality, shrinking labor supply, and escalating social security expenditures under the aging trend, this study proposes strategic solutions including establishing a multi-tiered pension system, implementing delayed retirement policies, and improving integrated medical-care support systems. Through innovative fiscal mechanisms and coordinated regional economic development approaches, the research aims to achieve adaptive optimization of the social security system in the aging context, thereby promoting stable regional economic growth and enhancing social welfare.
