Cílem publikace je najít cestu k tomu, jak inovovat ISPV (Informační systém o průměrném výdělku), aby na jeho základě šlo analyzovat data o vlivu rodičovství na mzdy a genderové mzdové rozdíly přímo z těchto dat.

The upswing in finance in recent decades has led to rising inequality, but do downswings in finance lead to a symmetric decline in inequality? We analyze the asymmetry of the effect of ups and downs in finance, and the effect of increased capital requirements and the bonus cap on national earnings inequality. We use administrative employer–employee-linked data from 1990 to 2019 for 12 countries and data from bank reports, from 2009 to 2017 in 13 European countries.
