Life-Cycle Savings and Public Policy a Cross-National Study of Six Countries

The key to understanding household saving is obtaining appropriate data. Dealing with differences between rich and poor households, for example, or the old and the young, require observation of a large number of households. The focus of this study is to obtain data on many households from a number of different countries and to examine them in a coherent fashion. The hope is that through these observations, we can learn about the ways policies affect savings and that other differences among savers can be controlled for, instead of being blamed on "cultural differences. This book features a consistent framework among chapters; reaches a harmony between measurement and analysis to compare accurately the resulting data and statistics; and provides econometric methodology to reveal the way policies affect savings.

  • "The focus of this study is to obtain data about savings behavior from households in a number of countries, and then to examine these data in a coherent fashion. These steps are difficult because of the ways "savings" can be defined (for instance, does it include capital gains or is it simply the difference between income and spending?) and the varieties in which the data are tabulated and reported. The hope is that the differences in tax and pension policies across countries can be sufficiently regularized by means of the authors' analyses to shed light on the ways these policies affect saving."@en
