The Causality Between Current Account Deficit and Economic Growth: The Case of Visegrad Four

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine the causality between the current account deficit and economic growth for Visegrad Four (Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia). In this context, an empirical model was developed in the scope of the panel data analysis using annual data for the period of 1993-2015. Firstly, heterogeneity of the variables was investigated using the delta test, and then cross section dependency and unit root were examined respectively by the CDlm test and Hadri-Kurozumi (2012) test. After the existence of the cointegration relationship between the series was proved by using the Durbin H cointegration test, Dumitrescu-Hurlin panel causality test was applied. According to the empirical results, in the long run there is one-way causality from current account deficit to the economic growth in Visegrad Four.
