This quantitative method was adopted using secondary data and Regression Analysis, and Granger Causality Walds Test was used to explore the relationship among identifiable. At a significance level of 0.05, the F-statistics is 8.18 while the p-value of the F-statistics is 0.0002, which is less than 0.05. This implies that the combination of the independent variables significantly influences the balance of payment.
