Evolution of the Global
Income Inequality, 1970-2015
Yuri Dikhanov
World Bank
Présenté par:
Mr. Michel WARD
Expert des Nations Unies
Global inequality consists of within-nation and international components
Global distribution is based on 45 countries representing 5/6 of population and income
Income from household surveys is augmented to Personal Consumption Expenditures
National distributions converted using PPPs Quasi-exact approximation of distribution f-n (with
cubic polynomials)
Assumptions for 2015
Growth rates from the 90s are maintained for 2000-2015 (except for Africa and Eastern Europe)
National distributions are frozen at the 2000 level

Income transfer
Assumptions: Poverty gap 39% (20.6% of world population below
PPP $700) 5% of the wealthiest transfer 2.8% of their total
income or 8.1% of marginal income (1.04% of world income - $350 bln. in PPP terms or $150 bln. in exchange rate terms) to cover the poverty gap;
Transfer is made to the people below PPP $1,400, with marginal rate 19.6%.
