An aging population presents social and economic challenges, with systematic and endogenous changes in economic behaviour, especially on savings. This scenario requires adjustments and reforms in social security and stimulus in complementary pension plans assisting people to a more balanced financial situation throughout life, generating family welfare. The objective of this research was to delineate the scientific approaches of aging in Brazil, identifying in these approaches the intention to collaborate with the definitions of public policies in the scope of social security and complementary pension plans.
