Cointegration and causality between non-bank financial intermediaries and economic growth in Malaysia: an ARDL bounds testing approach

This paper aims to investigate the causal relationship between nonbank financial intermediaries (NBFIs) and per capita economic growth in Malaysia for the period 1974-2004. The study employs the ARDL bounds testing approach to cointegration. The Granger non causality test in a multivariate vector er...
