is defined by Encyclopedia Britannica as the process of setting aside a portion of current income for future use, or the flow of resources accumulated in this way over a given period of time. Saving may take the form of increases in bank deposits, purchase of securities, or increased cash holding. The extent to which individuals save is affected by their preferences for the future over present consumption, their expectations of future income, and to some extent by the rate of interest.
