This paper studies how changes in house prices, private credit, and stock market capitalization affect income inequality. Dynamic panel data methods are used on an unbalanced panel of 57 advanced and emerging economies between 1998 and 2018. The results point to a positive impact of an increase in these variables on both the Gini coefficient of disposable income and the share of top incomes. Overall, the evidence indicates that the development of the financial sector and its consequent extension to households has been a driver of income inequality. The results are robust to different measures of house prices, different econometric specifications, and control variables. ER -
