Abstract

The following paper elaborates on the significance of saving for the financial stability. The changes in the propensity to save of households in Poland between 1997-2010 are discussed. A regression analysis was carried out in order to test the influence of changes in consumer confidence on the household saving rate. It has been demonstrated that a change in consumer confidence for the positive has a negative impact on the saving rate and a change for the negative contributes to a greater propensity to save.
