- Abstract : With dynamic provincial panel data in the period of 1990 to 2014, this paper studies the effect of demographic structure on China's investment in different econometric methods. The empirical results show that both young dependency ratio and old dependency ratio have caused China's increasing investment rate. Besides, China's investment has a strong inertia. The results are robust in different estimation methods. The paper forecasts that the high investment level will continue for a period of time and this situation will be gradually reversed with China's demographic structure changing process in the long run.
