Convergence Success and the Middle-Income Trap
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2018This paper investigates the economic growth experiences of middle‐income economies over the period 1960–2014 focusing on two groups of countries. The “convergence success” group includes middle‐income economies which have graduated to a high‐income status or have achieved rapid convergence progress. When an economy in the “nonsuccess” group experienced

Income Convergence in an Endogeneous Growth Model
Journal of Political Economy, 1991An endogeneous growth model is developed that produces convergence in per capita income and growth rates of output. Agents have identical preferences and access to identical technologies of production and investment, but differing levels of initial human capital.

THE OPTIMAL CONVERGENCE OF REGIONAL INCOMES*
Journal of Regional Science, 1985ABSTRACTFor many policy considerations it is assumed that the convergence of regional mean income will improve national equity by reducing overall inequality. The literature on decomposability of social welfare functions implies that this assumption is unwarranted. This paper develops a notion of optimal regional convergence.

Essays on regional income convergence
2022Cette thèse comprend deux essais qui fournissent une analyse complète de la convergence régionale des revenus au niveau de la zone métropolitaine aux États-Unis entre 1960 et 2019. Le premier chapitre montre que si le revenu déflaté par un indice des prix national a cessé de converger depuis 1980, le revenu ajusté par l'indice des prix locaux (revenu ...

On the lumpability of regional income convergence
Letters in Spatial and Resource Sciences, 2015This paper examines how “lumping”, the aggregation of different states of a Markov chain into one state, affects the underlying properties of the Markov process. Specifically, a Markov chain model of income convergence for US states is estimated, and different quantile lumpings are tested to determine if they preserve the Markov property.

Testing Convergence in Income Distribution*
Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, 2009AbstractThe generalized method of moments (GMM) estimator is often used to test for convergence in income distribution in a dynamic panel set‐up. We argue that though consistent, the GMM estimator utilizes the sample observations inefficiently. We propose a simple ordinary least squares (OLS) estimator with more efficient use of sample information. Our

The enigma of noninterest income convergence
Applied Financial Economics, 2011Over the past quarter century, the great wave of financial liberalization, together with advances in information processing technology and finance theory, created severe competitive pressures on both the asset and liability sides of bank balance sheets and, on the positive side, allowed banks to offer more products and services.

A slowing of national income convergence
Applied Economics Letters, 2001Shocks to the international economy that occurred around 1973 may have altered the rate of convergence of national income across countries. Markov chains are used to examine whether the rate of convergence of national income was different pre- to post-1973 for a cross-section of 104 countries between 1960 and 1990.
