Knowledge gaps, convergence, and growth
This article presents a growth model with international knowledge spillovers arising from learning-by-investing externalities, explaining patterns of income convergence and growth. Technology adoption in follower economies depends on relative capital intensity, with spillovers enhancing productivity only when capital gaps with frontier economies are moderate. Using global data, we show that capital intensity largely determines growth, consistent …
The long‐run investment effect of taxation in OECD countries
The gradually changing nature of production and the move away from tangible investment towards intangible investment over the past century suggest that the effects of the tax structure on investment need to be reassessed. To address this issue, we establish an endogenous growth model in which investment in tangible assets, R&D and education are influenced by different types of taxes. We test the long‐run implications of the model using annual dat…
Capital Heterogeneity and the Decline of the Labour Share
We investigate the decline of the labour share in a world characterized by increasing heterogeneity of capital assets. Our results show that over the 1970–2007 period, the decline of the labour share has been driven mainly by Information and Communication Technology assets and is mitigated by increasing investments in R&D‐based knowledge assets. Extending to other forms of intangible capital from 1995 onwards, we find that intangible investments …

Wealth Inequality in the Long Run
This paper extends the analysis of the wealth–income ratio based on the neoclassical model in a Schumpeterian growth framework in which savings are channelled to both tangible and intangible capital investment. Using historical data for 21 OECD countries over the period 1860–2015, we find that the wealth–income ratio and, hence, wealth inequality, is negatively related to the rate of economic growth and positively related to the rates of investme…
