Economic Openness and Growth in MENA: Evidence from Dynamic Heterogenous Panel Models
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This paper explores the impact of openness on economic growth in MENA countries using a heterogeneous panel data approach over the period 1979-2019. We have found higher domestic capital stock and school enrollments to attribute to the region’s economic growth. However, the empirical results support a weak indirect association between economic performance and openness of MENA countries using different globalization measures. Our findings support that MENA countries have limited economic growth gains from globalization.
