传统的经济解释未能成功解释各国储蓄率的差异。一个假设是,储蓄对特定文化的社会规范作出反应。到目前为止,经济学中公认的观点是,文化对储蓄没有任何影响。我们使用一个新的数据集重新审视了这一证据,这使我们能够研究英国多达三代移民的储蓄行为。在现有证据的背景下,我们发现,文化偏好是储蓄行为跨国差异的重要解释,其相关性持续到三代人。
Traditional economic interpretations have not been successful in explaining differences in saving rates across countries. One hypothesis is that savings respond to cultural specific social norms. The accepted view in economics so far is that culture does not have any effect on savings. We revisit this evidence using a novel dataset, which allows us to study the saving behavior of up to three generations of immigrants in the United Kingdom. Against the backdrop of existing evidence, we find that cultural preferences are an important explanation for cross-country differences in saving behavior, and their relevance persists up to three generations.
