This paper analyzes how capital concentration affects wage inequality through the channel of financial frictions. Higher capital concentration can be regarded as the Piketty effect. Under the framework of cost constrained financial frictions, we find that higher capital concentration will expand (resp. narrow down) wage inequality if the asset-liability ratio in the skilled sector is high (resp. low) enough relative to that in the unskilled sector.
期刊介绍:
We welcome submissions in all areas of economic theory, both applied theory and \"pure\" theory. Contributions can be either innovations in economic theory or rigorous new applications of existing theory. Pure theory papers include, but are by no means limited to, those in behavioral economics and decision theory, game theory, general equilibrium theory, and the theory of economic mechanisms. Applications could encompass, but are by no means limited to, contract theory, public finance, financial economics, industrial organization, law and economics, and labor economics.
