Abstract
Resume: Dans cette note, nous donnons un exemple élémentaire avec une fonction d’utilité concave où la règle d’épargne essentiellement unique et consistante est discontinue ; une telle règle d’épargne ne peut pas survenir avec une fonction d’escompte exponentielle. Abstract: In this note we provide an elementary example with a concave utility function where the essentially unique consistent savings rule is discontinuous; such a savings rule could not arise with exponential discounting.
