【摘要】：本文利用1960-2012年全球150个国家的面板数据,考察了金融发展对收入不平等的影响。研究结果表明:(1)总的来说,金融发展越快,全球收入不平等程度越高,而且金融发展通过经济增长进一步拉大了收入差距;同时,金融发展在更大程度上拉大了总收入之间的不平等,全球经济增长对净收入的差距扩大抑制作用更强一些。(2)金融发展对不同收入水平国家的收入差距影响也存在差异。高收入国家的金融发展在促进经济增长的同时进一步拉大了收入差距,只有中高收入国家主要表现为缩小了收入差距,中低收入和低收入国家的金融发展与收入不平等之间的关系还有待进一步证实。(3)对我国的主要启示:由于我国刚步入中等收入阶段,为减少金融市场摩擦而进行的金融市场改革将会有利于缩小收入差距,所以还应继续大力推动金融改革,促进经济健康发展,从而缓解收入不平等。
[Abstract]:Using panel data from 150 countries in the world from 1960 to 2012, this paper examines the impact of financial development on income inequality. The results show that: (1) in general, the faster the financial development, the higher the global income inequality, and the greater the income gap through economic growth. Financial development has increased the inequality between gross income to a greater extent, and global economic growth has a stronger inhibitory effect on the widening gap in net income. (2) there are also differences in the impact of financial development on the income gap among countries with different income levels. While promoting economic growth, the financial development of high-income countries has further widened the income gap. The relationship between financial development and income inequality in low- and middle-income countries needs to be further proved. (3) the main enlightenment to China is that China has just entered the middle income stage. The financial market reform to reduce the financial market friction will help to narrow the income gap, so we should continue to promote the financial reform, promote the healthy development of the economy, so as to alleviate income inequality.
