No wp-2022-166, WIDER Working Paper Series from World Institute for Development Economic Research (UNU-WIDER)

Abstract: This paper examines trends and determinants of gross domestic savings in Tanzania using data for the period 1990-2020. The autoregressive distributed lag approach is employed to empirically analyse the short-run and long-run relationships. There has been a fairly stable increase in the domestic savings as a ratio of gross domestic product, though with considerable fluctuations over time.
