Abstract

El envejecimiento demográfico determina las características del ámbito económico. La hipótesis de estabilidad en el consumo del ciclo de vida del individuo hace del envejecimiento demográfico un factor que podría afectar al nivel de ahorro agregado. Normalmente, en la modelización del comportamiento de los activos financieros, son los factores de coyuntura económica los tenidos en cuenta quedando el foco demográfico relegado a un segundo plano. Diversos estudios empíricos han encontrado una elevada correlación entre la distribución por edades y las cotizaciones bursátiles. Con base en lo anterior, este trabajo realiza un ejercicio empírico con objeto de captar la conexión entre el papel que las finanzas personales ocupan en el ciclo de vida del individuo y el contexto demográfico. Mediante la especificación de un Modelo de Corrección del Error (MCE) se realiza un análisis de cointegración, que visualiza la vinculación estable a largo plazo entre el consumo de productos financieros y los cambios en la estructura por edades de la población. ****** The aging of a population determines the characteristics of its economic environment and, according to the life-cycle hypothesis, it may affect the level of aggregate saving. Generally, the modeling of financial asset behavior considers factors of economic events and neglects the demographic approach. However, several empirical studies have found a high correlation between age distribution and stock prices. Based on those ideas, this empirical work aims at capturing the connection between the role that personal finance plays in individuals’ lifecycles and their demographic context. By means of an Error Correction Model (ECM), a cointegration analysis was conducted to visualize the stable, long-term relationship between the consumption of financial products and changes in the age structure of the population.
