| Savings rate: The savings rate in economics is the percentage of income that households or a nation save rather than spend on consumption. It is calculated as (Savings ÷ Income) × 100. A higher savings rate boosts investment and economic growth, while a lower rate indicates higher consumption. It varies by country and economic conditions. See also Saving, Investments, Consumption, Growth._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.
