Résumé anglais Housing and Savings, by Joël Dessaint. It does not require a great deal of insight to observe that housing is an important factor in household savings and that the marked slowdown in housing investment is one of the causes of the drop in the savings rate observed in the 1980s. However, estimates concerning the phenomenon are often inaccurate because housing investments are wrongly linked with savings for housing. This paper proffers a different definition, making a more accurate estimate possible. The role housing plays in the drop in the savings rate is more complicated than it may seem. It also gives an account of the major financial effects of changes in housing investment.
