AbstractTanzania, like most other developing countries, faces numerous economic challenges in striving to achieve sustainable economic growth and development through taxation. In the literature, the debate on how effective taxes are as a tool for promoting economic growth and economic development remains inconclusive, as various research have reported mixed effects of tax on economic growth. This article investigates the effect of taxation on economic growth in Tanzania using the recently developed technique of autoregressive distributed lag model (ARDL) bounds testing procedure for the period from 1996 to 2019. Various preliminary tests were conducted including stationary tests as well as the pair-wise Granger causality test. According to the results obtained, domestic goods and services (TGS) taxes are positively related to GDP growth and are statistically significant at 1% level. Income taxes, on the other hand, were found to be negatively related to GDP growth and to be statistically significant at 5% level. The pair-wise Granger causality results indicated that there is bidirectional Granger causality between TGS and GDP growth at 1 % significance level. The government should aim at growing, nurturing and sustaining tax base to positively drive economic growth even further.

The financial system consists, without doubt, one of the most important determinants of the world national economies, which undergoes numerous changes and challenges with major impact on the economic growth prospects of a country. A healthy financial system is the steam engine of the economy, a major source for economic growth through which capitals are attracted for investments; hence, it is regarded as a trustee of financial stability. Given the difference in structure and function of the financial sector in various countries, we investigate the extent to which the implementation of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) accompanied by Corporate Governance practices affected the quality of financial and narrative reporting offered within published statements of Greek banks for the period from 2008 to 2011. The originality of the work lies at the fact that it focuses on Greek financial institutions for a period that incorporates both the burst of global financial crisis and the beginning of the Greek sovereign debt crisis making inferences on quality of reporting as a result of IFRS and Corporate Governance practices adoption. Our analysis revealed the positive contribution of both of the above categories of variables to the accuracy and quality of the information offered to stakeholders.

The Relationship

This study empirically re-examines the relationship between transport infrastructure and economic growth in India for the period 1990–2017. Multivariate dynamic models are applied to estimate the relationship between economic growth and different modes of transport infrastructure namely road, rail and air transports in the vector error correction model framework. The results reveal that road and air transports have significant positive contribution to economic growth in the long-run while rail transport is insignificant. This study further examines the said issue using unit free index variables and has constructed a composite index of transport infrastructure using principal component analysis to analyse the nexus between aggregate transport infrastructure and economic growth in India in the post globalisation era. The results of the study indicate the bidirectional causality between aggregate transport infrastructure and economic growth. Results of this study suggest incorporating feedback issue in policy formulations. JEL Codes: C22, O18, R4

The purpose of this chapter is to assess the contribution of the banking sector’s recapitalization to economic growth. Secondary data of all banks in Nigeria for 1980-2006 from Central Bank of Nigeria were used for the study. The findings of the study revealed higher mean GDP (N86.229 trillion) at post-recapitalization era compared to pre-recapitalization era (N56.860 trillion). Furthermore, 37% and 25% growth in GDP were recorded at post- and pre-recapitalization era, respectively. Selected indicators (bank credit, asset, saving deposit, and total loan) were all higher in the post recapitalization era. The result of t-test showed that there was a significant difference in GDP at pre and post recapitalization era at 5% significance level holding inflation constant. Bank asset had significant effect on GDP in the post-recapitalization era. Bank performance indicators could not fully account for growth and development in Nigeria’s economy though growth was recorded. Under subsequent initiatives, bank asset and total loan increased massively, while bank credit and saving deposits were stepped up via credit and savings incentives provisions for greater impact on growth in Nigeria.

This paper reports the effects of coronavirus on Jordan's economic growth by using quarterly data for the period (2018/2019 Q1 – 2019/2020 Q4), where the numbers of people who are sick with coronavirus and those that have died from the virus are explanatory variables, and economic growth is an affected variable. The research concentrates on analyzing reviews of theoretical and empirical literature to show the effect of coronavirus on economic growth and explaining this effect in Jordan in this period by using the ARDL technique in Eviews. By using quarterly data for (2018/2019 Q1 – 2019/2020 Q4) at a significance level of 5%, this research demonstrates that the numbers of people who are ill with coronavirus and those that have died from the virus have a weak positive effect and a negative but significant effect on the economic growth of Jordan, respectively. The research also shows a recommendation of limiting the negative effects of coronavirus by reducing the number of deaths via strengthening the health service and opening some economic sectors to boost economic growth in the country.

The study objective was toestablish the effect of debt servicing on sectoral economic growth as well as the moderating effect of inflation on the relationship between debt servicing and sectorial economic growth in Kenya. The study employed Auto Regressive Distributed Lag model. Eleven sectors that receive government expenditure were analyzed while adopting positivist philosophy and a causal research design. The Study period covered the year 2006 to the 2015.Secondary data for the study period were collected from Statistical Abstracts of Kenya National Bureau of Statistics and Debt Servicing Reports from Kenya National Treasury. Panel Stationarity Test and Heterogeneity Test were conducted as preliminary tests whereas Hausman Test was carried out to choose efficient estimator from Pooled Mean Group, Dynamic Fixed Effects and Mean Group Estimators. The study established that in the long run, debt servicing has a significant effect on sectoral economic growth. In addition, the study established that inflation has a significant moderating effect on the relationship between debt servicing and Sectoral economic growth in the long run at the significance level of 0.05. The study concluded that debt servicing has a significant effect on sectoral economic growth in Kenya in the long run and no effect in the short run. Additionally, inflation enhances the influence of debt servicing on sectoral economic growth in the long run. The study further confirms that Kenya is not facing a debt overhang problem. The study recommends that if the government must borrow, the loans should be concessional in nature with long term repayment periods. The government should ensure that reasonable levels of inflation are achieved.

Opening Paragraph

In an article entitled “Modelling the Economic Growth of anIslamic Economy,”l M. Ramazan Akhtar presented a mathematicalmodel that subjects Allahs attributes to measurement and underminesthe cause of the Islamization of knowledge, which he intended toserve. In his article, there are several flaws, mistakes, and inconsistenciesthat deserve comment and criticism. This paper has examinedcritically Akhtar’s model and found it to be neither informative norpredictive. Before presenting the critique, however, I would like tocomment on some of the general weaknesses of the article.In the opening paragraph (p. 491), Akhtar says: “Growth dependson several factors, among them a consistent increase in the amount ofphysical goods and services produced over a given period of time.This is usually taken as an index of economic growth.” Although economicgrowth is defined and measured by the increase in the amountof goods and services produced over a given period of time, it doesnot imply that the former depends on the latter. There is no cause andeffect relationship between the two.In his “Review of the Literature” (p. 492), Akhtar makes a generalstatement that Muslim economists use the terms “economic growth”and “economic development” interchangeably. The economic literaturethat has been produced since the early 1960s makes a clear distinctionbetween these two terms and views economic growth as anecessary, but not a sufficient, condition for economic development(Clower 1966). Most Muslim economists hold this mainstream view.If there are still some using the terms interchangeably, they are theexceptions.In the second paragraph on page 495, Akhtar gives an Englishtranslation of Qur’an 39:9. In fact, this is a translation of 41:10-aserious mistake and not a typographical error.The last paragraph on page 491 reads: “The hypothesis is examinedtheoretically because statistical data for empirical analysis is not available.”But at the end of this paragraph, he asserts: “Analytical resultsshow that moral factors make a positive contribution to both income ...
