Household savings

After 2008, the household savings ratio of the Hungarian population as a proportion of disposable income has risen, and constantly remained, above 10%. This occurred against the backdrop of extremely unequal income distribution, meaning that the proportion of households with the potential to put aside savings is heavily constrained. In any case, Hungary's household savings rate has remained significantly higher in recent years (10.4% in 2012) than the Visegrad Countries average (8.5%). On the other hand, it still lags behind the EU average (13%).
