- An interesting look from Bloomberg at global fertility rates.
- In 1960 the global fertility rate was five live births per woman.
- This is now 2.43, close to the level required to keep the world population stable.
- Half of all countries are already below this level.
- This has all sorts of implications for investments in the long run.
- Each grey line is a country – try to guess which the worst is?
