In the Q2 of the year, household savings reached an unprecedented level in Spain, namely 22.5% of disposable income. Funcas has chosen the savings rate, particularly the one recorded in that period, as ‘The data of the year.’ Through this initiative, its researchers have highlighted a particularly significant figure for the Spanish economy during this year about to end. Before the current crisis, the maximum savings rate for families was 12.1% in Q209, while the average in the period 1999 to 2019 was 8.2%.
