Non-linearity and the threshold effect of transparency on economic growth: evidence from developing countries
ABSTRACT This study examines the linear and non-linear threshold impacts of transparency on economic growth in 70 developing countries from 1984 through 2018, utilizing panel generalized method of moments (GMM) and dynamic-panel threshold estimations. We find that the impact of transparency on growth is stronger when we use non-linear GMM, and dynamic-panel threshold estimations. There is a U-shaped relationship between transparency and economic growth, while transparency is found to stimulate economic growth, especially in a high-transparency threshold regime. The result reveals that financial development plays an important role in moderating the transparency–economic growth nexus in developing countries.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Economic Policy Reform focuses on the analysis of economic policy reform. The journal draws upon what lessons can be learned from the successes and failures of countries undertaking reforms and how existing theories can be developed to shed light on positive as well as normative aspects of the reform process. The Journal of Economic Policy Reform encourages work from economists and political economy analysts on policies to promote growth and reduce poverty, intellectual property rights, aid versus trade, debt and debt relief, taxation and social security systems, surveys of key reform issues, as well as on corruption, democracy, emerging markets and the role of multilateral institutions.
