영문 초록

As a once in a lifetime experience, demographic dividends present themselves as an opportunity for the country to further economic growth. Benefits of demographic shifts, however, are not automatic and must be accompanied with a host of enabling factors such as high rates of savings and investment. Hence, this study looked at the savings and investment performance of the Philippines and evaluated the trends relative to the experiences of other East Asian economies undergoing demographic transition. Circumstantial evidence was presented as to why the Philippines might have missed the demographic window of opportunity.
