What effect might increased savings have on economic growth?
Increased savings affects economic growth primary by changing the future level of savings with respect to investment. Since savings is matched to investment and investment is used to replace and purchase capital, future investment will determine the respective level of capital development. Economic growth, being a function of the factors of production, including capital, will be changed by increased savings by having a higher level of future capital. Moreover, increasing savings can increase or decrease future economic growth, depending on the difference between current investment and required investment. When current investment falls below required investment, future economic growth increases due to a savings increase and vice-versa. Decreasing growth is possible because factors of production have diminishing returns to scale, which means that increasing levels of capital have lower returns to productivity than previous units.
Are regions only found where physical and economic characteristics are strongly related?
No, regions can be based on a variety of characteristics such as cultural, political, or environmental factors in addition to physical and economic considerations. These characteristics contribute to the unique identity and functions of different regions, beyond just their physical and economic traits.
