 How can policy makers raise household saving?
On the 22nd February 2012 the British Academy Policy Centre will be publishing a new report, authored by researchers from the Institute for Fiscal Studies, on how policymakers can raise household saving. The report examines in detail what is known - and what is not known - about the effectiveness of four types of intervention designed to raise saving by households: financial incentives; education; choice architecture; and social marketing. The report will be launched at the British Academy, 10-11 Carlton House Terrace, London SW1Y 5AH, from 9.30-11.30 am with an invited audience of around 50-60 academics, politicians, policymakers and other practitioners with an interest in this area. There will be a presentation of the report's findings from the authors followed by a panel discussion. Speakers and panellists include:
