Aid And Growth: A Comparative Study Between Sub-Saharan Africa And Asia

2 Citationer (Scopus)

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between aid and economic growth and analyses factors that might have influenced this relationship in two major aid recipients regions, Sub-Saharan Africa and Asia that started from similar levels of real GDP per capita but had different patterns of development. The results from applying generalised method of moments procedures to a sample of 44 Sub-Saharan African countries and to a sample of 31 Asian countries from 1972 to 2007 indicate a negative relationship between aid and growth in both regions. Mixed results were found for the influence of policy variables, institutional quality and financial development.
