Causes, Consequences of Inequality: Evidence from the

Venue: tbc

IMF

Widening income inequality is the defining challenge of our

time. This session will explore the extent of inequality, its

drivers, consequences, and what to do about it. While

there is no one size fits all approach to tackling inequality,

the nature of appropriate policies depends on the

underlying drivers and country-specific policy and

institutional settings. However, it is important for

policymakers to focus on the poor and the middle class to

lower inequality and boost growth.

About 3.5 billion people live in countries rich in oil, gas or

assistance helps countries build stable macroeconomic

policy environment for exploration and exploitation of

natural resource wealth and invest and spend it wisely thus

generating a substantial benefit for poverty reduction and

boosting shared prosperity.
