Document summary
Brazil is one of the best positioned among the 20 most populous countries to benefit from positive demographic trends in the next 10 years. Brazil is set to benefit from a 15 million increase in working-age population coupled with significant upward social mobility: in 7 years 30 million have joined the middle class. The healthcare and education sectors benefit directly from Brazil’s positive demographic dividend. Healthcare plans are 73% corporate so coverage is driven by an increasing working population. Post-secondary education is driven by greater disposable income; an efficient student financing initiative might be a key dynamic in the industry.
