https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2023/08/staff-discussion-paper-2023-16/
In this paper, the authors assess the relationship between digitalization and labour demand and supply, and how this relationship affects wages and income inequality. We also explore implications of recent digitalization trends for the future of work.2023-08-15T12:00:22+00:00enDigitalization: Labour Markets2023-08-15DigitalizationLabour marketsStaff Discussion Paper 2023-16https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/sdp2023-16.pdfStaff Discussion Paper 2023-16Alex ChernoffGabriela GalassiAugust 2023II2I23JJ2J23J24OO3O33Income Inequality in Canada
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2022/07/staff-discussion-paper-2022-16/
Data show that income inequality in Canada increased substantially during the 1980s and first half of the 1990s but has been relatively stable over the past 25 years. This increase was felt mainly by low-income earners and younger people, while older people benefited from higher retirement income.2022-07-27T07:13:13+00:00enIncome Inequality in Canada2022-07-27Central bank researchLabour marketsMonetary and financial indicatorsStaff Discussion Paper 2022-16https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/sdp2022-16.pdfIncome Inequality in CanadaSarah BurkinshawYaz TerajimaCarolyn A.

https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2019/02/staff-working-paper-2019-7/
This paper studies optimal education subsidies when parental transfers are unequally distributed across students and cannot be publicly observed. After documenting substantial inequality in parental transfers among US college students with similar family resources, I examine its implications for how the education subsidy should vary with schooling level and family resources to minimize inefficiencies generated by borrowing constraints.2019-02-11T14:03:49+00:00enInequality in Parental Transfers, Borrowing Constraints and Optimal Higher Education Subsidies2019-02-11Fiscal policyPotential outputProductivityStaff Working Paper 2019-7https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/swp2019-7.pdfInequality in Parental Transfers, Borrowing Constraints and Optimal Higher Education SubsidiesYoungmin ParkFebruary 2019DD1D14D6D61D64D8D82II2I22JJ2J24Heterogeneous Returns to U.S. College Selectivity and the Value of Graduate Degree Attainment
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2013/12/working-paper-2013-46/
Existing studies on the returns to college selectivity have mixed results, mainly due to the difficulty of controlling for selection into more-selective colleges based on unobserved ability.2013-12-19T08:33:21+00:00enHeterogeneous Returns to U.S. College Selectivity and the Value of Graduate Degree Attainment2013-12-19Labour marketsWorking Paper 2013-46https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/wp2013-46.pdfHeterogeneous Returns to U.S. College Selectivity and the Value of Graduate Degree AttainmentMai SekiDecember 2013CC3C30II2I21Expansion of Higher Education, Employment and Wages: Evidence from the Russian Transition
https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2013/12/working-paper-2013-45/
This paper analyzes the effects of an educational system expansion on labour market outcomes, drawing upon a 15-year natural experiment in the Russian Federation. Regional increases in student intake capacities in Russian universities, a result of educational reforms, provide a plausibly exogenous variation in access to higher education.2013-12-13T11:52:56+00:00enExpansion of Higher Education, Employment and Wages: Evidence from the Russian Transition2013-12-13Development economicsLabour marketsWorking Paper 2013-45https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/wp2013-45.pdfExpansion of Higher Education, Employment and Wages: Evidence from the Russian TransitionNatalia KyuiDecember 2013II2I20JJ2J24Education and Self-Employment: Changes in Earnings and Wealth Inequality

In an overlapping-generations model that represents a small open economy, where agents live two periods, liquidity constraints lead to low economic development when the only accumulable factor is human capital.2004-04-01T12:14:49+00:00frContraintes de liquidité et capital humain dans une petite économie ouverte2004-04-01Economic modelsWorking Paper 2004-13https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/wp04-13.pdfContraintes de liquidité et capital humain dans une petite économie ouverteFlorian PelgrinApril 2004II2I20OO4O40
