Demographic Processes and Their Impact on the Rate of Gross National Savings
Rovný, Martin ; Potužák, Pavel (advisor) ; Chytilová, Helena (referee)
The main task of this thesis is to clarify the impact of demographics on the rate of gross national savings which is considered one of the main elements of economic growth. Demographic trends and theoretical background are presented, which contributes to the understanding of the relationship of savings and the age structure of the population. The assessment of the relationship is done based on cross-sectional analysis of data from period 2009 -2013 for 133 countries, while the effect of demographic forces is studied through dependency rates of unproductive population. In the analysis partial estimates and analogous research with the pre-crisis data are performed. The results suggest that demographic forces leading to the growth of dependency rates negatively influence the savings rate. However, the important role is played by the level of development of individual countries or regional specifics since the effect of demographics between developed and developing countries is considerably different.
