Wealth Sample Clauses

Wealth. The distribution of wealth has a negative effect on income inequality as return on capital are large source of households’ income [28, 29]. Studies show differences in saving behaviour across income classes, with higher income households saving a larger fraction of their income. [30] shows that the lower and middle incomes are not able to keep pace with housing prices. Most of these drivers are featured in GEM-E3-FIT modelling framework and thus the model can endogenously assess income inequality in policy scenario assessments. In particular, GEM-E3-FIT model includes: • a detailed representation of the labour market with endogenous involuntary unemployment for 5 different occupation and skill types; • endogenous technological change through learning by doing and learning by R&D, particularly for low-carbon technologies; • a detailed representation of ten income classes through multiple households; • endogenous bilateral trade of goods and services; • an endogenous representation of human capital development and the decision of households for education enabling an upgrade of skills; • a detailed representation of direct and indirect taxes, subsidies and other benefits. The table below includes the most common indicators used to measure income inequality. The Gini coefficient is the most established and popular indicator, while the decile dispersion ratio presents the ratio of the average income, for instance of the richest 10 percent of the population to the poorest 10 percent [31]. However, this indicator does not use information about the distribution of income within deciles and does not provide information about incomes in the middle of the distribution. Other indicators have been developed to improve the understanding about income distribution, e.g. Generalised Entropy family (e.g. the Xxxxx index) and the Atkinson index which allow to examine the effects of inequalities in different sub-regions of the income spectrum enabling enhanced assessments of different inequalities. Table 7: Indicators to measure income inequality Indicator Description/ relevance for inequality Mean and median income by household The mean income is the amount obtained by dividing the total aggregate income of a group by the number of units. The median is the income level that divides the population into two groups of equal size. The use of the median corrects potential distortion that may be caused by the existence of extreme values. Decile dispersion ratio This measure presen...

Wealth. It is plausible that wealth affects HIV/AIDS policy making with wealthier countries being able to afford to provide HIV services that poorer countries cannot provide. In fact, poverty and lack of resources has often been mentioned as the reason why developing countries were not able to establish ART programs until the early 2000s when cheap generic drugs and international aid for treatment programs became available (Xxxxxxx, 2007, Xxxxxxx, 2001). The argument this project seeks to test is that electoral market imperfections decrease democratic accountability and negatively affect governance, including social and health policy, but also economic policy. Therefore, we should expect a close statistical association between the imperfections in the electoral markets and the level of economic development, and, as a result, high degree of multicollinearity in the regression models. In order to address the issue of multicollinearity, the indicator of wealth – per capita GDP, was transformed (King, Keohane, & Verba, 1996). Specifically, the continuous measure of per capita GDP was dichotomized and the sample was divided into two categories based on their per capita GDP: poorer countries (below the mean of the per capita GDP in the sample time period) and richer countries (above the mean of per capita GDP in the sample time period). The dichotomous indicator of wealth was included in all the multivariate models. GDP per capita data was obtained from the World Bank World Development Indicators (WDI) data base. For the time period between 2002 and 2007, a total of 920 observations was available.
