Saving determinants in Colombia: 1925-1994

Article Abstract:

An intertemporal model framework may be used to analyze the saving determinants of Colombia during 1925 to 1994. Test results show that there is a perfect correlation between the changes in national savings and the changes in investments. Colombia's national savings can be increased by increasing the public sector saving rate. Moreover, the private saving in Colombia is negatively affected by the increases in age dependency and urbanization. Furthermore, higher taxation and increased government expenditures also resulted to the decrease in private savings.

Article Abstract:

A significant decrease in the current savings cycle of Argentina is present when public savings and consumer durables factors are explicitly measured. However, the adjustment speed between investments and savings does not necessitate the long-term use of foreign savings by the Argentine economy.
