This quantitative, correlational study, with a non-experimental design and longitudinal data, analyzed the relationship between public investment by the Regional Government of Loreto and income inequality in said department during the 2015–2024 period. Three specific objectives were addressed: to analyze the evolution of regional public investment, income inequality measured by the Gini coefficient, and the gap between monthly per capita income and expenditure. The results showed that real public investment was increasing, with an annual average of S/ 356.8 million in real terms and a budget efficiency of 79.80%. Regarding income inequality, the Gini coefficient showed an average annual decrease of 1.03%, which evidenced a gradual improvement in distributive equity, especially among provinces with a higher demographic weight. Likewise, it was confirmed that monthly per capita income exceeded monthly per capita expenditure, with an average difference of S/. 152, although this gap could be biased by the high incomes of a minority. Inferential analysis determined that for every 1% increase in real public investment, there is a decrease of 0.0003046 percentage points in the Gini coefficient, which confirms the inverse relationship between these two variables.
