论文题目：Adverse Selection and Income Distribution

报告人：朱胜豪（对外经贸大学国际经济贸易学院教授）

论文摘要：We investigate how information frictions influence income distribution, specifically when there is a trade-off between rent extraction and efficiency. We show that information frictions increase income inequality through two channels. The information rent increases income inequality. And the optimal contract induces a less equal output distribution. We also show that a mean-preserving spread of the type distribution increases income inequality under the optimal contract. The type distribution could be a discrete distribution or a continuous distribution. These results continue to hold after we introduce government redistributive policies.
