This study investigates the role of intergenerational mobility in explaining the native-immigrant income gap in Estonia …. We find that an increase of 1 percentile in parent income rank is associated with on average 0.2 percentile increase in … child income rank for both natives and second-generation immigrants. Results from a detailed Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition …
