Transferencias monetarias condicionadas en Brasil, Chile y México: impactos sobre la desigualdad
We decompose changes in the Gini coefficient to investigate whether the Conditional Cash Tranfers (CCT) have had an inequality reducing effect in three Latin American countries: Brasil, Mexico and Chile. We conclude that CCT programs helped reducing inequality between the mid-1990s and the mid-2000s...

| description | We decompose changes in the Gini coefficient to investigate whether the Conditional Cash Tranfers (CCT) have had an inequality reducing effect in three Latin American countries: Brasil, Mexico and Chile. We conclude that CCT programs helped reducing inequality between the mid-1990s and the mid-2000s. The share of total income represented by the CCTs is very small, less than 1%. But as their targeting is outstanding, the equalising impact of CCTs was responsible for about 21% of the fall in Brazilian and Mexican inequality figures In Chile the effect was responsible for around 15% of the reduction. |

Descomponemos los cambios en el coeficiente de Gini para investigar el impacto de las Transferencias de Ingreso Condicionales sobre la reducción de la desigualdad en tres países latinoamericanos: Brasil, México y Chile. Concluimos que los programas de Transferencias de Ingreso Condicionales contribuyeron para la reducción de la desigualdad entre los años 1990 y los años 2000. Estos programas representan apenas el 1% del ingreso total. Sin embargo, como son muy bien focalizados, fueron responsables por 21% da la disminución de la desigualdad en Brasil y en México. En Chile fueron menos importantes, contribuyendo con 15% de una pequeña reducción en la desigualdad.
