Education and Income Inequality: New Evidence From Cross‐Country Data
This paper presents empirical evidence on how education is related to income distribution in a panel data set covering a broad range of countries for the period between 1960 and 1990. The findings indicate that educational factors—higher educational attainment and more equal distribution of education —play a significant role in making income distribution more equal. The results also confirm the Kuznets inverted–U curve for the relationship betwee…

Inflation Stabilisation and the Consumption of Durable Goods
Exchange rate‐based stabilisations in chronic‐inflation countries have often been characterised by an initial consumption boom (which is most evident in the behaviour of durable goods) followed by a later contraction. This paper provides an explanation for such a boom‐recession cycle based on the timing of purchases of durable goods. The initial fall in inflation results in a wealth effect which induces many consumers to bring forward their purch…

The demand for money in developing countries: Assessing the role of financial innovation
Traditional specifications of money demand have been commonly plagued by persistent overprediction, implausible parameter estimates, and highly autocorrelated errors. This paper argues that some of those problems stem from the failure to account for the impact of financial innovation. We estimate the demand for money for ten developing countries, employing various proxies for financial innovation, and provide an assessment of the relative importa…
Financial Innovation and Money Demand: Application to Chile and Mexico
This paper reexamines one estimation of money demand equations using quarterly data for Chile and Mexico. The authors find no evidence of cointegration of traditional long-run money demand equations. In light of this evidence, they argue that there is an important permanent component of the demand for money not captured by traditional variables (interest rates and income). The authors call this phenomenon financial innovation and they include it …
