Import And Economic Growth In Asian Countries
Abstract
This paper investigates the relationship between imports and economic
growth in 32 countries in the Asian region. In order to achieve this objective, annual
data of these countries is collected ranging from 2002 to 2019, and checking the results
is conducted by using the Granger-Causality tests. Eventually, the result demonstrates
that GDP does not cause imports and the effect of GDP on imports is not displayed.
Therefore, long-term relationships among variables seem to not exist from the overall
look of the whole of Asia.
