GLCURVE: Stata module to derive generalised Lorenz curve ordinates [PDF]
Given variable varname, call it x with c.d.f. F(x), glcurve either draws its Generalised Lorenz curve or generates two new variables containing the Generalised Lorenz ordinates for x, i.e. GL(p) at each p = F(x) (or both).

Unequal and Unstable: Income Inequality and Bank Risk
Journal of Money, Credit and Banking, EarlyView.Abstract We present a model in which income inequality interacts with banks' risk‐taking incentives, generating financial instability. Competition and deposit insurance cause some banks to lend to lower‐income borrowers at underpriced rates, creating “risky banks” that fail in downturns, while others lend to higher‐income borrowers and avoid default ...

Bridging Knowledge Capability Gaps: Digital Technology Offsetting in Interfirm Knowledge Transfer
Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.Abstract In this digital age, the adoption of digital technology (DT) is changing traditional business processes. Against this backdrop, we try to answer the question of whether DT could effectively bridge any interfirm knowledge capability gaps. Though effective knowledge transfer is dependent on the sender's and the receiver's knowledge capabilities,
