Taking Italy as their field of research, the contributors conduct a coherent analysis of households' saving behaviour. They emphasize the roles of capital markets, private and government transfers and their interactions, as well as shifting demographic patterns, in shaping consumption decisions. The book also offers evidence on such controversial issues as bequests and precautionary saving.
The evolution of private saving and its interaction with government fiscal policy play an important and complex role in the development of the national economy. To gain insight into this process, it is imperative that we improve our understanding of the savings behaviour of individual households and of the ways in which they aggregate over the entire population to produce national saving. Italy provides an ideal laboratory in which to assess the impact of government and private transfer, imperfections in the capital markets, productivity growth and shifting demographic patterns on the saving behavior of individual households and on their aggregation into total private saving. The book draws on the Italian experience and data, and offers findings on many aspects of the process of saving determination.
