That indicator showed significant drops in several countries, among which are the Bolivarian Republic ofVenezuela (-18%), Argentina (-10%), Peru (-9%), Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay and the Plurinational State of Bolivia, (each with -8%). Figure 1.8 illustrates the percentage change in the Gini, Theil and Atkinson indices (the latter, calculated with an inequality aversion ratio of 1.5) between 1990 and the date of the most recent data available. Because these indices assign different weights to each income distribution bracket, they may show different trends.
