Financial Development and Female Labor Income Share: Evidence from Global Data

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: This paper investigates the association between the dimensions of financial development and female labor income share for 160 countries for 1991-2019. The findings show that financial development is positively associated with women’s income in high-income countries but not in low-income countries. This suggests that financial development in poor countries is not sufficiently inclusive enough to create economic opportunities for women.
