Hi Tim,

I hope your summer is going well. You may want to look at this article and the references listed within it: "An International Look at the Growth of Modern Finance" by Thomas Philippon and Ariell Reshef in the Journal of Economic Perspectives, Spring 2013. Good luck with your project!

Subject: [AFEEMAIL] Financial sector profits

Does anyone know a good source for the percent of profits going to the financial sector for differing countries?  I know some have written on how much of profits goes to FIRE in the US and how it has increased dramatically over time.  I was looking at data for other developed countries if anyone knows.

thanks

Tim
