“…Export led growth strategy has been vigorously emphasized by Michaely (1977), Balassa (1978) and Darrat (1987) particularly for developing countries. This export led growth is also supported by the growth rates of South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore since seventies and China presently.…”

The paper examines the relationship between domestic investment, export and economic growth in India during 1970-71 to 2007-08. Using Johnson's cointegration methodology the study found the presence of a long term relationship between investment, exports and the economic growth of India. The study further shows that only domestic investment significantly contributes to economic growth both in the long run and in the short run. The export, though, has positive relation with economic growth, its contribution has not been found to be significant. The policy implication is that India should continue to focus on domestic investment while diversifying investment towards promoting export sector through investments in infrastructure.

“…Early empirical formulations tried to capture the causal link between domestic investment, exports, imports and economic growth by incorporating trade into the aggregate production function (Balassa, 1978;Sheehey, 1992;Turan and Seni, 2014;Zaheer et al, 2014;Saaed and Hussain, 2015;Bakari, 2016;Masoud and Suleiman, 2016;Bakari, 2017). The augmented production function including both exports and imports is expressed as:…”

Article History JEL Classification F1, F10, F14 This paper investigates the relationship between domestic investment, exports, imports, and economic growth in Sudan. In order to achieve this purpose, annual data were collected from the reports of World Bank for the periods between 1976 and 2015, was tested by using Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) and Phillip-Perron (PP) stationary test, co integration analysis of Vector Error Correction Model and the Granger-Causality tests. According to the result of the analysis, unit root tests show that economic growth, domestic investment, exports and imports series become stationary when first difference is considered. Also, it was determined by using co integration analysis that there is relationship between the four variables in Sudan. Also, and according to the Vector Error Correction Model, there is no relationship between variables in the long run term. On the other hand, and according to the GrangerCausality tests, we defined that in the short run term, only economic growth cause domestic investment. These results provide evidence that Reforms and measures in economic strategies are still insufficient to make trade and domestic investment able to boost the Sudan's economy.

“…15 It is somewhat paradoxical that the importance of export-led growth has been emphasised by both neoclassical economists (contrasting it favourably with import substitution industrialization, ISI) and more interventionist minded economists. Representative of the former are Balassa (1978;1983) and Tyler (1981), and of the latter Wade (1990). The World Bank's World Development Report of 1987 placed great emphasis on the positive role of exports and the failure of ISI.…”
