Dutch term or phrase: aandelenrisicopremie

"..de blijvende daling in de *aandelenrisicopremie* duidt op een overschot aan spaartegoeden.."
Comments on the world economy in general in an annual report. I may be wrong, but 'share (or equity) risk premium' just doesn't sound right.

Explanation:
This seems to be a pretty general term used in the financial world

Equity Risk Premium
The difference between the rate of return available from risk-free assets (such as Government bonds) and that available from assuming the risk inherent in more volatile investment such as shares. Over the very long term in Australia, the equity risk premium is around 8% over cash. Shorter term it is of the order of 3% over long bonds, which are themselves some 2% over cash.
