  The purpose of this study is to investigate the financial market change due to the population ageing and to suggest financial preparation for old age income. Population ageing leads to decreases in saving rate, while the assets from the old households are decumulated. This phenomenon may give a negative effect on the financial market. Hence, in order to prevent the financial market from the contraction, the Korean government should take a pension reform and develop the capital market.
