“…The positive relationship observed in panel C between economic growth and digitalization aligns well with the positive correlations demonstrated in the other scatter plots between digitalization and governance, as well as governance and growth. These interconnected relationships emphasize a reinforcing cycle that can contribute significantly to the region's development, supports the theoretical hypothesis of the study, and aliens well with the-limited-empirical studies that examined the hypothesis in a way or another (Labhard and Lehtimäki, 2022;Nguyen, 2021).…”

“…As for the relation between governance, digitalization, and growth, Labhard and Lehtimäki (2022) studied the effects of digitalisation on economic growth, and how those effects may be impacted by institutions and governance. By applying on EU countries, the study found that better institutions and governance tend to be associated with greater growth-enhancing effects from digital technologies.…”

This paper explores the relationship between economic growth, the digital economy, and governance in Arab countries, investigating whether effective governance amplifies the positive impact of digitalization on economic expansion. Through a panel data analysis covering 2018-2021, significant and favourable connections between economic growth, the digital economy, and governance quality are revealed. The study highlights digitalization's pivotal role in fostering economic growth and emphasizes the need for investments in digital infrastructure and innovation. Additionally, it underscores the crucial link between economic growth and effective governance, suggesting that transparent decision-making and efficient resource allocation enhance the benefits of digital initiatives for economic development. The findings advocate for policymakers to prioritize enhancing digital readiness and governance frameworks, fostering innovation and equitable access to technology, ultimately paving the way for sustained and inclusive economic growth in Arab countries.

“…The study related the result to the lack of maturity of the e-government system in the MENA countries which does not avail them of the complete benefits of e-government. Labhard and Lehtimäki(2022) examined the nexus between technology, governance, and economic growth in 103 countries grouped into EU, non-EU OECD, and other countries. Technology is represented by fixed broadband subscriptions and the percentage of individuals using the Internet.…”

Despite the international recognition of the vital role of egovernment in realizing economic development, few empirical studies measured the relationship between e-government and economic growth, particularly in the European Union. Thus, this paper examines the impact of e-government on per capita GDP in the European Union countries where e-government is measured in two ways:(1) the e-government enablers, represented by the United Nations E-Government Development Index and its sub-indexes, namely, telecommunication infrastructure, human capital, online service, in addition to the e-participation index; (2) Eurostat variables which gauge the individuals actual use of e-government services through three modes, particularly, obtaining information, downloading official forms, and submitting completed official forms online, in addition to the overall interaction with governments online.

“…In parallel, it is still not entirely clear to what extent the measurement of productivity is impaired due to the technological change associated with digitalisation, see for exampleAnderton et al (2020) and the references therein.6 Preliminary results based smaller data set with 24 EU countries and a shorter time sample are included inAnderton et al (2020). In a companion paper,Labhard and Lehtimäki (2022) focus on the growth effects of digitalisation, and the possible role played by institutions and governance in that context. ECB Working Paper Series No 2675 / July 2022…”
