Income Change and Saving: Capital Supply for Economic Development

Author

Abstract

In this paper, we analyze the positive variation of the personal and national saving-income ratios with the rates of change in the respective incomes. This relation helps to account for the high saving-income ratios in today‘s developed economies during their periods of rapid growth. The view that less developed economies are trapped in a vicious circle of poverty is questionable. These countries have high saving-income ratios when their income per head is growing at a high rate. The relative and permanent income theories do not explain this phenomenon.
