Pre-Distribution and Ownership
The SCIS recognised that limited analysis had been done of how the production system and associated financial architecture increase inequality in developing countries. The work investigates how to reconfigure production systems and design policies in order to achieve more equitable outcomes within society. It focuses on inequality that results from pretaxation income disparities due to various structural, market and other institutional factors.
Research to date has revealed that growing inequality cannot be addressed by focusing only on redistribution through the financial system.
