This study investigates the impact of trade openness on economic growth in a panel of five emerging market economies, covering the data period from 1993 to 2016. Based on the panel estimation methods, the empirical results confirm the long-run relationship among trade openness, economic growth, financial development, inflation, labour force, and technology, whereas the findings of long-run elasticities show that trade openness has a positive considerable impact on economic growth. Furthermore, the heterogeneous panel non-causality tests indicate the presence of a bidirectional causality between economic growth and inflation and a unidirectional causality that runs from economic growth to trade openness and economic growth to financial development in the short run. Finally, the findings suggested that trade openness plays a substantial role in promoting economic growth while also promoting economic development in these five emerging market economies.
