A study by the Cologne Institute for Economic Research (IW) finds that the number of women aged 25 to 39, the primary childbearing age group, is expected to decrease by around one tenth by 2035. This, coupled with a low average number of children per woman (1.32), will likely result in persistently low birth rates in Germany. Economists urge better family policy to address this trend.
