The theory formulated by Modigliani and Brumberg back in 1954 namely the life cycle theory of savings and consumption observed a 'hump-shape' throughout the lifetime of a person. This has been the major knowledge until recent studies have shown that it doesn't follow the hump-shape pattern that the theory suggests. Some observe it is non-existent while some even see a double hump in some studies. This theory is frequently related to household savings and mainly for macro-level studies. The proponents used it to study the National Capital Region of the Philippines to look at the importance of understanding savings under the life cycle model in connection to the savings patterns of households at a micro level.
