Life expectancy continues to rise

The following figures show life expectancy at 60 years for different regions. Although there is a difference of about 4 to 5 years between North America and less developed countries, all regions show a trend of rising life expectancy at 60 years, close to retirement age in most countries. This confirms the need to raise retirement age in countries (see previous note).
