Abstract: [eng] The European System of Accounts (ESA 95) created an homogeneous accounting framework and harmonised concepts for analysing households’ saving behavior in Europe. For the most publicised indicators, comparable data is thus presently available in most of the EU countries. Against this background, households’ financing tables present the equilibrium between households’ resources and uses. They provide with a global view on the degree of convergence of the rates of saving, credit, financial and non-financial investment in European countries. On the side of resources, the credit rate appears to be the main source of variability of accumulation rates across countries. As far as uses are concerned, financial investment rates explain most of the changes in household’ accumulation rates. . JEL classifications : E20, M41
