The Relationship

The relationship between financial development and economic growth and the direction of causality between them have been received a lot of attention recently by many scholars. It is also important to analyze this relationship and the direction of causality due to implications of policies. In this study the relationship between financial development, trade liberalization and economic growth for Turkey are examined using three different models. Model 1, 2 and 3 investigate the effect of domestic loans to the private sector and trade liberalization on GDP, the impact of the domestic credit provided by banks to the private sector and trade liberalization on GDP and the effect of M2 money supply and M2 trade liberalization on GDP, respectively. Data extracted from World Development Indicators. Autoregressive-Distributed Lag Bound Test (ARDL) is used as a co-integration test to determine the long run relationship between variables. In addition, Toda and Yamamoto (1995) is utilized to test the direction of causality between financial development and economic growth according to the three financial indicators such as domestic loans to the private sector, the domestic credit provided by banks to the private sector and M2 money supply. According to the results there is a unidirectional relationship from economic growth to domestic loans to the private sector and the domestic credit provided by banks to the private sector. Additionally, the results indicate that a bidirectional relationship exist between M2 money supply and economic growth.

The Impact

The aim of the research is to measure the impact of financial development on economic growth in Iraq using the annual time series for the period 2004-2018 for a number of monetary and financial variables (money supply in the broad sense / GDP, capital accumulation rate / GDP and the ratio of credit granted to the private sector / GDP) expressing the development in the financial sector in Iraq, and this period was chosen in line with the relatively high rates of economic growth witnessed in Iraq, and the study used descriptive and quantitative approaches in order to build an appropriate standard model to measure the impact of financial development on economic growth in Iraq, and the method of time series analysis was used. The results showed that the economic variables contain the unit root, and the variables become stable after the first differences, and this was followed by subjecting the variables to the joint integration test by the Johansson method, which proved the existence of four vectors for the joint integration between the research variables, and the results of the joint integration showed that there is a long-term relationship between the variables The subject of the research, as the causation test of Granger concluded that there is a unilateral trend of causation from the financial variables to the variable of economic growth, and the research found the existence of an effect of each of (broad-sense money supply / GDP, and the ratio of credit granted to the private sector / GDP) on economic growth in Iraq, while the rate of capital accumulation / GDP was not statistically significant. In light of the previous results, the research recommends the following: The necessity of directing domestic credit to productive investments by paying attention to the rate of capital accumulation that is directed to local investments and attracting foreign investments by providing a safe and stable legislative environment that helps financial liberalization for the purpose of increasing economic growth rates in Iraq..

The Relationship

Economists believe that efficient financial development is significant for building sustainable economic growth in any country. The global financial crisis, economic events and country’s uniqueness has resulted in continuous research to examine the relationship of financial and economic development using numerous methods and indicators which presented various simulation that led to different views on the linkages. Most of the studies had tested the indicators individually which resulted in less dynamic findings and creates a gap in the research. Hence, this paper aims to examine the relationship between financial development and economic growth in Malaysia by observing different economic indicators concurrently. This study using Malaysia’s annual time series data from 1990 to 2019. This study employs descriptive statistics, regression estimations, unit root test, Johansen co-integration test, VAR, and VECM modeling. The FTSE Kuala Lumpur Composite Index (FBMKLCI) and domestic credit as a percentage to GDP (DC) have been used as proxies for financial development while GDP per capita and Industrial Production Index (IPI) as proxies for economic growth. The findings reveal that FBMKLCI and domestic credit produces a significant relationship towards GDP per capita in the long run and short run. Contrary results found in FBMKLCI-domestic credit-IPI nexus whereby FBMKLCI and domestic credit demonstrate negative association towards IPI. As this study uses the same variables to indicates the relationship towards unalike economic growth gauge, more dynamic work and effort shall be considered to enhance the results. Government and respective institutions shall play their role effectively to revisit or formulate policy and law of the financial system to stimulate the growth of the Malaysian economy.

The Relationship

This study examines the relationship between financial development and economic growth. Thus, this study aims to find empirical shreds of evidence for the direction of the causality between financial development proxied by domestic credit to the private sector and per capita GDP growth by using the panel granger causality test of the Dumitrescu-Hurlin Test. For this purpose, we used a panel of 16 OECD countries from 2008 to 2019 to provide evidence of whether the supply leading hypothesis or demand following hypothesis or both holds. All econometric exercises are carried out for whole countries and high-income countries, and upper-middle-income country groups in the sample. Due to cross-sectional dependence among the sample countries, we determine the degree of integration of each variable by employing the second-generation panel unit root tests of CIPS. We continue our analysis with the panel causality test developed by Dumitrescu and Hurlin (2012) to determine the direction of the causality between variables. For this purpose, we performed three sets of causality analyses. In the first one, we include all countries in the panel. We then divided the countries into two sub-groups based on the income classification and the level of financial development in these countries proxied by domestic credit to the private sector. The causality test results, including all countries in the sample, indicate that the hypothesis holds the supply leading hypothesis during the sample period. This means that even though this panel contains countries with a development level, financial development still seems to be a pre-condition for economic growth for these nations. We also obtain the same results when we include high-income countries in the sample. The study results provide compelling evidence for the relationship between economic growth and financial development since the sample includes countries with different levels of financial development with different degrees of per capita GDP growth.

This paper examines the relationship between foreign direct investment (FDI), economic growth and financial development in Cabo Verde for the period 1987-2014.The methodology involves the use of bound test approach to cointegration (ARDL) as well as the ECM-Granger causality analysis. The bound test indicated that there is a long-run relationship when the variable GDP and FDI are the dependent variable. Moreover, the results indicated that FDI has a positive effect on the economic growth in Cabo Verde. It also found a bidirectional causality between FDI and economic growth, i.e. FDI granger causes GDP and GDP granger cause FDI. Thus, we concluded that higher levels of FDI inflow mean higher levels of economic growth and vice versa for the economy of Cabo Verde. Furthermore, we found that both economic growth and domestic credit to private sector are important factors in stimulating the FDI into the country. These results found are important for the country policymakers to take appropriate measures to enhance and improve the condition for FDI inflow in Cabo Verde.

The Relationship

Considering the necessity of achieving economic development by keeping the quality of the environment, the aim of this paper is to study the impact of economic growth on GHG emissions in a sample of Central and Eastern European (CEE) countries (V4 countries, Bulgaria and Romania) in the period of 1996–2019. In the context of dynamic ARDL panel and environmental Kuznets curve (EKC), the relationship between GHG and GDP is N-shaped. A U-shaped relationship was obtained in the renewable Kuznets curve (RKC). Energy consumption, domestic credit to the private sector, and labor productivity contribute to pollution, while renewable energy consumption reduces the GHG emissions. However, more efforts are required for promoting renewable energy in the analyzed countries.

Purpose Using annual data from 1970 to 2013 for China and India, this paper aims to examine the impact of globalization and financial development on economic growth by endogenizing capital and inflation and drawing comparisons between the two fastest growing emerging market economies. Design/methodology/approach In the long run, co-integration test results indicate that financial development increases economic growth in China and India. Findings The results also reveal that globalization accelerates economic growth in India but, surprisingly, impairs economic growth in China, as it increases competition for exports. The results furthermore disclose that acceleration in capitalization and inflation, as a proxy for aggregate demand, are positively linked to economic growth in China and India. Originality/value Causality test results indicate that both financial development and economic growth are interdependent. In contrast, causality runs from higher economic growth to increased globalization in India, while the results do not support long-term causality between globalization and economic growth in China.

The Impact

Different academics and experts have acknowledged that developing the financial sector positively impacts economic growth by increasing productivity, progress and national investment. Expanding the financial sector allows financial intermediaries to carry out functionalities of deploying, aggregating and directing a country’s savings into an investment which contributes to domestic progression. This research explores the effect of financial deepening on Nigeria’s growth for 38 years covering 1981- 2018. The main research goals were to investigate the linkages among time and savings deposit of commercial banks, money supply and credit to the private sector on the economy’s growth. Data was obtained from CBN Bulletin different issues and analyzed using Autoregressive Distributed Lag. From the result of analysis, we found out that long run relationship existed but no regressor was found to be significant. Credit to the private sector to GDP was inversely related to GDP growth whereas money supply to GDP had positive relations with economic growth rate, time and savings deposits in commercial banks negatively affected national growth. Policies favoring credit lending to the private sector should be encouraged by stakeholders in the economy, for instance, higher savings interest rates would encourage more savings. More importantly, policies should be enacted to make sure that savings are transmitted into productive investments that can yield financial deepness

The Relationship

Trade and the integration of countries into the global economy is one of the main forces shaping the structural composition of economies, an effect which in turn is expected to impact upon productivity and growth. Structural change can be restrained or reinforced by international trade. This chapter reviews the theory on the relationship between trade and trade liberalization and both structural change and growth, from the contributions of Adam Smith to the more recent new new trade theory beginning with the work of Melitz. The chapter further discusses the existing empirical evidence on the relationship between trade and structural change, before concluding by presenting evidence on the impact of trade liberalization on productivity growth for a broad sample of countries, further decomposing the effect into an effect due to structural change and an effect due to within sector productivity developments.

The Jordanian economy has been a recipient of huge amounts of remittances. Indeed, for more than a decade now, the inflow of this capital has been fluctuating around 10 percent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Within this context, the subject matter of remittances has resulted in the development of a myriad of research issues. One of these issues is the impact of remittances on financial development or bank credit to the private sector. This paper looks at the relationship between financial development and remittances in the Jordanian context. Based on the time period 1992-2019, and time series econometric techniques (co-integration and vector auto-regression, among others), this paper examines the impact of remittances on bank credit to the private sector, and on its main sectoral distributions. The estimated results reveal some interesting findings. There is no long-run stable relationship between bank credit to the private sector and remittances. However, there is a stable long-run relationship between credit to individuals (households) and remittances, and between credit to the construction sector and remittances. These conclusions imply that remittances, on average, promote private consumption in general, and residential spending.
