Ítem El efecto de la desigualdad sobre el crecimiento departamental de Colombia(Universidad EAFIT, 2019) Castillo Lozano, Dionisio Andrés; Goda,ThomasÍtem Impacto de la inclusión financiera en los indicadores de pobreza y desiguadad de ingresos en los departamentos de Colombia(Universidad EAFIT, 2021) Mona Mejía, Dany Alexis; Restrepo Jaramillo, Juliana; Goda, ThomasThe indices of poverty and income inequality in Colombia have decreased between 2000 and 2019. A possible explanation for this reduction is the increase in financial inclusion of vulnerable households in the country, global case studies have shown that, depending on the socioeconomic and specific to the financial system conditions of each territory, financial inclusion can reduce inequality and poverty. The objective of this paper is to verify empirically if financial inclusion contributed to the reduction of inequality and poverty in the states of Colombia during the years 2009 and 2019. The obtained results indicate that the used measure of financial inclusion does not significantly affect poverty and inequality measures in Colombia. One potential explanation for this finding is that the most vulnerable households do not have access to a wide array of financial instruments; or that their access has not had the expected effect because they opt for consumer loans and become overindebted instead of increasing their savings and investment.Ítem Tasas de interés y desigualdad de ingresos, un estudio para Latinoamérica y el Caribe(Universidad EAFIT, 2016) Ospina Mejía, Nicolás; Cárdenas Vargas, Kevin; Goda, ThomasÍtem ¿Tiene la desigualdad de ingresos efecto en el crecimiento económico departamental en Colombia?(Universidad EAFIT, 2019) Murillo Caicedo, Blanca Luz; Goda,ThomasThe present graduate project determines the existence of an effect between income inequality and economic growth. For this purpose, the income regression model with a data panel corrected by the System of generalized moments method (System GMM, for its acronym in English) is analyzed in the Colombian context, following closely the study carried out by Charles, Mayer, & Cheín (2018), which proposes a negative effect of income inequality on 2 economic growth. The empirical study made start of a database of 23 departments of Colombia plus the Capital District of Bogotá, in a period of fourteen years (2002-2017 excluding the years 2006 and 2007). The empirical results are consistent with the hypothesis and answer the question of the effect of income inequality on economic growth.
