Greece’s aging population is putting an added strain on the social security fund EFKA, now 48.57 billion euros ($53.13 billion) in debt from businesses and those owing contributions that haven’t been paid.
Most – 1,645,85 debtors representing 74.36 percent of the total owe up to 15,000 euros ($16,406.63) – and the problem is worsening, the debt going up 691 million euros ($755.8 million) in just three months, said the business paper Naftemporiki.
