About the indicator

Gross national savings as a percent of GDP — what is left of national income after all consumption, private and public. Savings and capital formation differ by the balance of external transactions: a country that saves more than it invests at home exports capital, and one that invests more than it saves imports it. Hence the stable link with the current account balance, which is exactly what this indicator makes visible.

Important: The difference between savings and capital formation is approximately equal to the current account balance — that is an identity of the national accounts, not a coincidence.
