Som følge af det lave inflationspres i Forbundsrepublikken Tyskland kunne en kraftig forøgelse af væksten i BNP i faste priser (3 % i 1984) derimod i dette land finansieres ved hjælp af en stigningstakt af husholdningernes opsparing (prognose fra Kommissionens tjenestegrene — januar 1984).
This slow­down in inflation in the Community as a whole is expected to be accompanied by a reduction of some 1,5 percentage points in the weighted dispersion, essentially as a result of a decline in the inflation rate in France (7,2 % for the private consumption deflator as against 9,5 % in 1983), in Denmark (5,3 % in 1984 as against 6,7 % in 1983) and in Ireland (9,0 % as against 10,8 %).
