If a country's working-age share rises but the household savings rate falls, which potential mechanism of the demographic dividend may weaken?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The capital formation and investment channel

A demographic dividend is not automatic merely because the working-age share increases. One possible pathway is that more working-age people earn income, save part of it, and make those savings available for investment and capital formation. Investment can support productivity, employment, and economic growth when institutions and opportunities are suitable.

If the household savings rate falls, this savings-to-investment pathway becomes weaker. The country may still gain through employment or productivity, but the capital formation channel is reduced. The other choices do not describe the mechanism in the scenario: birth-rate measurement, geographic density, and elderly health are separate matters. Therefore option A is correct.
