It is often said that we in Belgium are a nation of savers. New figures released by the National Bank of Belgium confirm this. At the end of last year the total amount of cash deposited on savings accounts at banks in Belgium topped 300 billion euro. At the end of 2021 and in the summer of 2022 total savings exceeded 300 billion euro. However, this amount fell under the 300-billion mark during the latter months of last year but increased again in December to end the year at 300.331 billion euro.
