For decades, the silver economy was shaped by one outsized force: the Boomers. The largest, wealthiest generation to reach retirement age in history.
Then Gen X started turning 60. By 2036, Gen X overtakes Boomers as the dominant silver spenders: $18T vs $15T. But for the next decade, both are in the market simultaneously. Two unusually large, unusually wealthy generations, overlapping at peak spending age, in categories from health and wellness to financial services to premium consumer goods.
On June 18, World Data Lab, NIQ, and Silver Economy break down where that spending is concentrated, which categories are being reshaped, and how brands should position themselves now.
