ROLE OF FINANCIAL MARKETS AND INSTITUTIONS IN ECONOMIC GROWTH: A DECOMPOSED ANALYSIS

RESULTS SUMMARY

• The results assure the finance-growth nexus in the Americas and African
countries via trade liberalization, which reduces the power of control groups
blocking financial development in a market (Carkovic and Levine, 2005).
• For the regions, i.e., Asia, Europe, European Union, Oceania, and Middle East,
financial development, via the route of foreign investment opportunities, which
swell gross capital formation and labor force participation, maintain a positive
relation with economic growth (Carkovic & Levine, 2002; Khan & Khan, 2011).

CONCLUSION

• The results concludes that (i) a well-performing financial system eases the
external financial constraints impeding expansion of firm and industry, (ii)
simultaneity bias does not play a role in reaching to the conclusions, and (iii)
countries with better performing markets and banks grow faster, vis-à-vis
economic growth.

POLICY RECOMMENDATIONS

• The region-wise financial reforms must aim at


• reducing foreign direct investment volatility by increasing stability in
economic and political terms,
• refining resource distribution in the regions of Europe and European Union,
• furthering trade liberalization policies in the regions of Asia, Europe,
Oceania, and Middle East by the political route via which trade openness
influences financial development.
