A fail measurement will lead to under-measure true household saving
saving can occur in the form of both financial and non-financial assets
E.g.. House, car and valuable assetsIn Thailand, many non-financial assets
are counted in household consumption.In Thailand, There are no clear line
between household and firmsE.g. farmers
![Page 35: Long-Term Saving in Thailand. Introduction After the 1997 crisis, domestic saving in the capital accumulation and development process became much](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cd85503460f949a1d0e/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Saving is not only for consumption
accidents or as a form of insurance against short-term
fluctuations in income.
A fall in the uncertainty facing households or improved
financial intermediation will result in less need for households to save
![Page 36: Long-Term Saving in Thailand. Introduction After the 1997 crisis, domestic saving in the capital accumulation and development process became much](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cd85503460f949a1d0e/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Who are Saving: the Rich or the Poor?
![Page 37: Long-Term Saving in Thailand. Introduction After the 1997 crisis, domestic saving in the capital accumulation and development process became much](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cd85503460f949a1d0e/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
More than half of household saving originates from Bangkok and the central region reflecting the geographical concentration of economic activity and high-income households.
![Page 38: Long-Term Saving in Thailand. Introduction After the 1997 crisis, domestic saving in the capital accumulation and development process became much](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cd85503460f949a1d0e/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Instruments of Saving and Wealth – How to
Save?
The question of how to save arises because households save for a variety of reasons: retirement, emergencies, down payments
for retirement should save in relatively illiquid assets with high returns over the long term
Households saving for emergencies should save in liquid assets with low risk
![Page 39: Long-Term Saving in Thailand. Introduction After the 1997 crisis, domestic saving in the capital accumulation and development process became much](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cd85503460f949a1d0e/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

Econometric Analysis of Household Survey Data – Why do Certain Households Save More than Others? What can be done toPromote Saving?
Determinants of Household Savings: Evidence from Microeconomic Data
From the regression we found that We find that household saving tends to be increasing in age, income, and savings access and decreasing in wealth.
We also find out that households holding the 30 baht medical insurance
tend to save less.
![Page 43: Long-Term Saving in Thailand. Introduction After the 1997 crisis, domestic saving in the capital accumulation and development process became much](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cd85503460f949a1d0e/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Financial access also matters with regards to
saving. Our finding suggests that different
financial institutions may have different effects on household saving.
Some institutions may serve to augment the ability of households to
save effectively while others may specialize in borrowing services.
The net effect is indeterminate.

Are Households Saving Enough for Retirement?
(BOT Survey)
54 percent of the households interviewed reported saving inadequately for emergencies and retirement.
A logistic regression of saving sufficiency on various socio-economic variables reveals that low financial literacy, low education, being a renter or mortgage holder, numerous household members or being a laborer or firm employee all contribute to households not saving enough.

Are Households Saving Constrained?
A saving constraint is said to exist if a respondent reports at least one unmet need for a saving service.
The survey indicates that approximately 18 percent of respondents report being saving constrained.

Main Purpose for domestic saving
To support growth To finance domestic investment and
reduce the reliance and associated risks from having to borrow aboard
For each individual household, the main reason for saving now is to set aside present income for the future needs

Cross-countries Experience
Loayza, Schmidt-Hebbel, and Serven (2000)Loayza, Schmidt-Hebbel, and Serven (2000) provided constructive theoretical and empirical
studies regarding the impact of several variables on the ratio of private saving to GDP.
They show that (per capita) income levels, the terms of trade, and financial depth (usually proxied by monetary aggregates) generally have positive impacts on the saving ratio.
The dependency ratio and the public saving ratio have negative impacts on saving.

Cross-countries Experience
Dayal-Ghulati and Thimann (1997)Dayal-Ghulati and Thimann (1997) inflation may negatively impact private
saving. some savings vehicles may not be
perfectly indexed. higher inflation could reduce the
incentive to save in a way that offsets the precautionary motive.

Thailand’s Experience: What We Know
A study focus mainly on saving was under taken by Kosiyanon in 1974 with cross-section data from Socioeconomic Survey.
She investigated household saving behavior from 1960 to 1972.
Her result confirmed the Keynesian absolute income hypothesis.
The urban marginal propensity to save was higher than the rural areas and the marginal propensities to save are also significantly differ among regions.

Thailand’s Experience: What We Know
Back in the 1980s, an investigation of saving behavior in Thailand :
Tengumnuay (1981)Tengumnuay (1981) applied data from the Socioeconomic Survey and
confirmed, using an econometric model, that income, household size, age structure, income source and urban-rural difference have significant effects on saving behavior in Thailand.
Self-employed households and farm households in the rural central area tended to save more.
On the contrary, there was no significant relationship between household savings and interest rates.

Thailand’s Experience: What We Know
Kirakul, Sripayak and Ploydanai (1982)Kirakul, Sripayak and Ploydanai (1982) found no significant impacts of interest rates
(both nominal and real interest rates) on household savings.
The net effects of deposit rates cuts did not lead to lower household savings.
interest rates had low, unclear, or statistically insignificant impacts.

Thailand’s Experience: What We Know
Vanitchatchavan (1997)Vanitchatchavan (1997) He found income (labor income); capital
inflow and financial development had a positive effect on the level of savings.
While real interest rates have negative effects on aggregate savings, corporate savings and government savings but not on household saving.

Rojthamrong (2001)Rojthamrong (2001) showed the large amount of foreign loans
prior to the 1997 economic crisis resulted in domestic saving growing at a slow pace.
As Thais significantly raised their consumption of imported luxury goods and travel abroad, the saving rate declined.

Determinants of Saving in Thailand
In this paper, we use annual data for the period 1971-2003, with public and private saving rates based on national accounts data to construct the macroeconomic determinants of saving in Thailand.

The Error Correction Model: Private Saving Model
The estimated function for private saving is given here below to illustrate the idea of ECM model we apply in this paper.
SPriv is private saving as a percentage of GDP; SPub is public saving as a percentage of GDP; GROWTH is the economic growth rate; and the dependency ratio is the ratio of population below fifteen and above sixty-five years of age as a percentage of the total population.

Empirical Analysis of Saving in Thailand
Income and GrowthIncome and Growth The permanent-income theory predicts the higher
growth (higher future income) reduces current saving.
But in the life-cycle model growth has an ambiguous effect on saving, depending on which cohorts benefit the most from income growth.
a 1 percentage-point rise in the growth rate increases the private saving rate by a similar amount.

Empirical Analysis of Saving in Thailand
Growth RateGrowth Rate growth variable has a positive and
significant, albeit small, impact in the long-run on all types of saving rate.
a 10-percent increase in the growth of the economy raises the long-run private saving ratio by 0.03 percent.

Real Interest RateReal Interest Rate the rate of return variable propose that the
real rate of time deposit on bank has a statistically significant positive effect (although small) on private and household saving behavior in Thailand.
A one percent increase in time deposit rate is associated with a 0.002 percentage point increase in the private and household saving rate.

Empirical Analysis of Saving in Thailand
External Factor External Factor the effect of foreign lending reduces private
(and national) saving in the long run. foreign lending crowds in public saving and
corporate saving. a 1 percentage point increase in the inflow
of foreign capital relative to GDP is estimated to increase in public saving and corporate saving by 0.3 and 0.06 percentage point, respectively.

Empirical Analysis of Saving in Thailand
Demographic FactorDemographic Factor Life-cycle saving is not sufficient to account
for the high level of aggregate wealth in industrial economies.
we have small evidence here to confirm that a rise in the young-age and old-age population via dependency ratios tends to lower private saving rates in Thailand.

Empirical Analysis of Saving in Thailand
Ricardian equivalenceRicardian equivalence The private sector reduces its long-run saving rate
by 0.18 percentage point for each percentage point increase in the public saving ratio.
We found the degree of Ricardian equivalence in Thailand which private saving offset movements in public saving in the long run.
The fiscal policy is identified as one of the main instruments to promote the much needed increase in national saving in Thailand.

Empirical Analysis of Saving in Thailand
ConclusionConclusion private and household saving respond
positively to real interest rates. macroeconomic policy may play a rose in
boosting national saving. Fiscal consolidation appears as one of the
best policy instruments to raise the national saving rate in Thailand.

Appendix III The Golden Rule, Growth, and Savings
The Solow-Swan Neoclassical model of growth (Solow 1956) shows that economic growth in the can occur from the accumulation of capital, labor, or technology.
Long-run output depends on the ratio of capital to labor and technological progress.
High saving results in high investment and a higher capital stock.
The Solow-Swan model, however, is silent on the question of how much society should save.
![Page 95: Long-Term Saving in Thailand. Introduction After the 1997 crisis, domestic saving in the capital accumulation and development process became much](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cd85503460f949a1d0e/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)
How much society should save ?
The question was answered by Phelps (1961). The question was answered by Phelps (1961). Society should save at rate so as to
maximize consumption for not only the current generation but also all future generations.
“The Golden Rule” : “doing unto other generations what we would have done unto ourselves.”
![Page 96: Long-Term Saving in Thailand. Introduction After the 1997 crisis, domestic saving in the capital accumulation and development process became much](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cd85503460f949a1d0e/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)
Once the Golden Rule level of capital is attained, the marginal product of capital will be equal to population and technological growth.
Capital Share of GDP Output = Marginal Product of Capital * (Capital / GDP) The fact that the net marginal product of
capital is still high relative to population and technological growth indicates that the Thai economy has yet to attain the Golden Rule level of capital and the present rate of saving is therefore not excessive....
