Abstract

Este artículo pretende determinar y analizar el impacto de las inequidades pensionales en la distribución del ingreso del país, específicamente, busca cuantificar la contribución de las pensiones en los actuales niveles de desigualdad. Partiendo de la descomposición del Coeficiente de Gini en diversas fuentes de ingreso, y usando la información de la Gran Encuesta Integrada de Hogares del 2012, se demuestra que las pensiones son una fuente de desigualdad debido principalmente a la baja cobertura pensional, producto de los actuales niveles de informalidad laboral y desempleo, y a los subsidios pensionales que tienden a favorecer a los trabajadores con mayores recursos.
