This is a retired estate. blog.cfi.co was published between 2019 and 2026, largely outside CFI.co’s editorial process: much of it was templated, and part of it was supplied through a third-party content agency’s account. It also carried republished CFI.co editorial material. It is not governed by the CFI.co governance file and it is not part of CFI.co’s hashed public archive. Publishing here stopped on 30 July 2026.

The global trend towards increasing globalization since the 1990s seems to have had two different distributional consequences: income inequality between countries has declined, while economic inequality within countries has increased. However, technological progress has made the biggest contribution to rising income inequality over the past two decades. Domestic policies – fiscal policies, social protection – are the locus where inequality is to be tackled.
