In recent decades, promoting economic growth has become the main goal of all countries in the world. However, despite the achievement of desirable economic growth in many countries, poverty and the problems arising from it is one of the most important problems all over the world. The main cause of this problem is income inequality and the significant gap between high and low income groups. Accordingly, economic researchers and policymakers have paid special attention to reducing income inequality and improving equity along with economic growth. For this purpose, one of the essential prerequisites for improving economic welfare and reducing poverty is to identify the determinants of income inequality. Therefore, given the importance of reducing income inequality on the one hand, and the important role of financial development in income distribution on the other hand, this study aims to investigate the direct and indirect role of financial development on income inequality in oil-exporting countries during 2000-2022 applying generalized method of moments (GMM). Based on the results, Greenwood-Jovanovic hypothesis is confirmed. It means that there is an inverted U-shaped relationship between financial development and income inequality. In addition, Kuznets hypothesis based on an inverted U-shaped relationship between economic growth and inequality, is also confirmed. Moreover, the results indicate that education and ICT indicators significantly increase inequality and the corruption control index significantly reduces income inequality in oil-exporting countries.
