Abstract

This paper implements the bound-testing approach proposed by Pesaran, Shin, and Smith (2001) to investigate the static and dynamic relationship between exports and economic growth in the Cameroon. The sample covers annual observations between 1980 and 2016. The results suggest the existence of positive long-run equilibrium relations in Cameroon. Furthermore, the findings indicate that the hypothesis that export growth causes economic growth called the export-led growth hypothesis is validated for the Case of Cameroon.
