According to several sources, the government proposes that a part of the frozen holiday pay after august will be paid. It should boost consumption to strengthen the economy during the coronakrisen.
the Proposal is that there shall be paid two out of the five weeks of frozen holiday pay, which in the grove figures to be about 40 billion kroner before tax.
– It is relatively a lot of money, so it will certainly amount to and be something you can see in the total consumption. Also, although it hardly is the whole thing, gets put into consumption, says the chief economist of Danish Bank Las Olsen, who expects about half of the money will be used.
In Nordea says wi-Ann Lehmann Erichsen, to a wage-earner, who earns around 300,000 euros a year before tax, you can look forward to get 8400 dollars paid.
– if you Are two, where one earns a little less than 300,000, and the other a little more, then get the family gathered around 16.000-17.000 dollars, she says.
Amount in the relatively small size of the has according to the forbrugerøkonomen the advantage, that they just goes to consumption, such as the government wishes.
– If it is a very large amount, then experience shows that it typically gets put into a savings.
– it Is less, so buying some is a great thing for the home, while others just have a little more money on the account for clothes or to go out to eat, says Ann Lehmann Erichsen.
– My guess is that seven out of ten dollars will go to consumption. The rest will be saved up.
But there is a risk by sending money out to consumers, for it can create an overheating, said Las Olsen.
But it is quite small due to both the unemployment rate, the low inflation and competitiveness.
– And the risks of doing too little is that a high unemployment persisting. So do you do it up, so it makes sense to do something, said Las Olsen.
Simultaneously lurks a potential second wave of the blow to the economy. Roughly speaking, the Danish economy dependent on domestic consumption and then the exports, that provides hundreds of thousands of jobs.
For exports can be even very hard hit to the autumn, when the consequences of coronapandemien out in the world materialise.
– so far it has gone better than feared for exports. But you might well be even very concerned about whether there is a bill and waiting for that.
