German term or phrase: SPARVORKOMMEN
Seitdem interessiert sich die ethnographisch-soziologische Forschung für das Sparmodell der Tontines. Seit gut 25 Jahren sind auch Regierungen und weltweit operierende Finanzinstitutionen auf diese riesigen „unterirdischen“ SPARVORKOMMEN aufmerksam geworden.

My sentence so far is:

Since then, ethnographic-sociological research has been interested in the savings model of the Tontines. For a good 25 years now, governments and global financial institutions have also been aware of these huge "underground" SPARVORKOMMEN.

perhaps "savings phenomenon" or"saving model" any thoughts would be appreciated!
