Abstract
This article is about investigation of export-led growth and growth-led export
hypotheses in case of Pakistan exports to top three exports partners namely:
USA, UAE and UK. Time series data over the period of 1975 to 2012 has
been used. Augmented dickey- fuller test has been used to check unit root
within data. Co-integration among the variables has been explored by
employing the Johansen’s co-integration technique. Granger causality test has
been used to investigate nature causality among variables under investigation.
Johansen’s co-integration test revealed the presence of co-integration among
variables. As major portion of Pakistani exports approximately 30 percent is
towards the top three exports partners, so the investigation of export-led
growth and growth-led export hypotheses in case of Pakistan’s exports to
USA, UAE and UK can helpful for policy makers to adopt a suitable policy
prescriptions which finally could lead to enhancement and improvement of
exports relations with USA, UAE, and UK. This research can lead towards
understanding about the dependency of exports and economic growth on each
other.
