Germany’s population is projected to shrink by nearly 5 per cent within 25 years — a significantly steeper decline than previously forecast, according to an Ifo study.

“Demographic change will have significant effects on all areas of the economy and society,” Ifo economist Joachim Ragnitz warned in the study.
