An Analysis of Guangzhou's Endowment Policies with an Aging Population

Abstract

Guangzhou's population has been rapidly aging, while corresponding problems in endowment have been growing increasingly severe. Given this situation, Guangzhou has formed a model of diversified endowment that mainly focuses on endowment at home. The city's endowment policies have also gradually formed a policy framework that is mostly focused on endowment security and endowment services, which involve economic support, living care, and the spiritual needs of the elderly. This article systematically looks at Guangzhou's endowment policy system and on this foundation further analyzes the specific contents of Guangzhou's endowment policy model, endowment policy authorities, basic endowment insurance policies, and family endowment service policies.
