Abstract: Much attention has been devoted in recent years to the sustainability and adjustment of global imbalances. This has put the spotlight on saving-investment balances across the world. This paper investigates the factors behind developments in private saving and investment across Member States with a view to explaining trends and projecting the adjustment of saving-investment balances in the near term. While neither the EU nor the euro area is characterised by any apparent major imbalance at the aggregate level, this masks a considerable diversity across countries. Divergences across Member States have come under particular scrutiny in he course of the financial and economic crises.
