Heterogeneous Returns To Wealth And Inequality: The Comeback Of 'r > g'
from Voxeu.org
– this post authored by Roberto Iacono and Elisa Palagi
A crucial element in the study of wealth inequality is the difference between the rate of return and the growth rate of income. However, the focus on these measures at the aggregate level belies important heterogeneities along the wealth distribution. This column uses rich micro-data from Norway to show that wealthy households enjoy higher rates of return relative to growth, while the opposite is true for poorer household and the lower-middle-income class. It discusses policy implications of these findings for capital and wealth taxation in order to curb the rise of inequality.
