Abstract: Abstract In a more detailed paper (see text for reference) the main conceptual and technical problems of the construction of national balance sheets are discussed and balance sheet ratios derived from the balance sheets of seventeen countries are compared for a number of benchmark dates varying from a decade to nearly three centuries. The chapter included in this volume deals with the share of saving in the increase in tangible and total national assets, and its determinants, in thirteen countries in the post-war period and eight countries in the period 1851–1913.
