Table 2 Proportion of generalized entropy index decomposed between region (left) and between SES quintile (right) components. The higher the percentage, the greater the proportion of overall inequality that can be attributed to inequality across subregions or inequality across SES quintiles. Additional space between years indicates the point at which each country’s CCT program was first implemented.
