Income Inequality and Inflation in the EU

Abstract: The main aim of this research is to analyze the relationship between income inequality and inflation in 13 European countries for the period 2000 to 2009 using panel data methodology. The GINI coefficient has been used to measure the income inequality while the inflation rate, the growth rate, the employment level and the openness of the economies have been used as independent variables. The results support the hypothesis that inflation has a positive significant effect on income inequality.

“…Financial institutions, which are the key intermediaries in the financial system, faced a systematic risk that froze and decreased the capital in the real economy. The subprime mortgages were designed with an interest payment, whereby the mortgagees were planning to refinance to avoid increased mortgages rates (Acharya and Philippo, 2009 ;Liapis et al, 2013;Thalassinos, 2013;Thalassinos et al, 2012;Thalassinos et al, 2014;Thalassinos et al, 2015;).

This paper aims to examine household demand for alcoholic and non-alcoholic packed beverages in Vietnam and identify its determinants.…”
