Main tendencies of globalisation of savings and investments in the world economy

Journal Title: Проблеми економіки - Year 2013, Vol 2013, Issue 2

Abstract

The article analyses modern tendencies of movement of world savings, economies and investments. It identifies main directions of structural shifts in these processes, among which are advanced dynamics of growth of savings of developing countries, especially China, BRICS countries and petroleum exporters, absolute and relative reduction of the share of savings of developed countries with simultaneous tendency of increase of savings in developing countries. It clarifies that investments are much lower than savings in the majority of developing countries. In developed countries volumes of investments are bigger than savings. With dropping volumes of savings, the developed countries started to invest into national economies partially from savings of developing countries. The most vivid is significant lag of savings from investments in the US. Due to irregularity of distribution of investments and savings, disbalances in the world financial system increase and result in excessive or insufficient economies and investments for internal needs of countries. The conducted analysis shows that in the result of complication of economic processes, the modern concepts of "savings", "economies" and "investments" do not reflect in full real tendencies of the economies-investments processes in the global economy. That is why, it is necessary to further specify components of these categories, which in modern conditions become more complex, especially with consideration of influence of certain additional quantitative and qualitative parameters (intellectual capital, intangible assets, quality of investments, capital intensiveness of economy, etc.).
