Consensus is that for the past 200 years, a rapidly rising population has consumed the earth’s resources, ruined the environment, and started wars. Contrary to the panic of overpopulation, a growing number of experts have been sounding a different kind of alarm. Studies reveal that the global population growth rate peaked in the 1960s, has been slowing since then, and may be heading towards a standstill by the end of this century. According to a new study published in 2020 by the Lancet the global population will peak at 9.7 billion around 2064, then drop off to 8.8 billion toward the end of the century. It is also projected that 23 countries could expect their populations to halve by 2100. The association between fertility and mortality declines and the demographic transition has been extensively studied and well documented, but their impact on labor force needed to continue with national economic development agenda has not been systematically investigated in the literature. Using South Korea as a case study, I propose to discuss the unavoidable demographic changes affecting the size and structure of South Korea’s population and its impact on availability and adequacy of the country’s labor/human resources. Finally, I will make public policy recommendations to enhance human capital availability, participation and productivity.

We used a sample of 70 non-financial Kuwaiti firms over the period 2010-2020 in order to analyse the impact of gender diversity on the capital structure. Our findings reveal that, in Kuwait, women occupy a limited number of leadership positions in corporations, and their career progression is significantly slower than that of their male counterparts. This disparity may contribute to a higher unemployment rate among women. Moreover, the results of OLS, Fixed-effects models and Random-effects (GLS) confirmed our proposed hypothesis that the proportion of female directors on its board (GD) displays a negative and statistically significant coefficient. This suggests that boards with a higher percentage of female directors tend to use less leverage. Moreover, we have used four variables to measure the gender diversity, mainly the proportion of female directors on its board, Blau Index, Shannon Index, and a dummy variable that equals one if the board has at least one female director and zero otherwise. Interestingly, the results of all variables consistently support the findings that gender-diverse board of directors is negatively associated with leverage utilization, plying that more gender-diverse boards may lead firms to use less leverage.
