This paper examines the distributional implications of inflation on top income shares in 12 advanced economies using data over the period 1920-2016. We use Local Projections to analyze how top income shares respond to an inflation shock, and panel regressions in which all variables are defined...

This paper examines the distributional implications of monetary policy from a long-run perspective, with data spanning 100 years of modern economic history in 12 advanced economies. We employ a two-step approach, by estimating a Panel VAR and a single-equation model with local projections, to...
