No 3138, CEPR Discussion Papers from Centre for Economic Policy Research

Abstract: This Paper compares the observed distribution of the stock of infrastructures across the Spanish regions with the optimal allocation derived from a planning problem in which the observed degree of ex-post redistribution is taken as given. The results suggest that Spanish public investment policy has been too redistributive.
