Abstract

The aim of this paper is to determine stable long-run relationships between investment, trade balance and cash-flow variables using Sectorial level of Morocco economy, in addition to the direction of the causality between them. Such relations are deduced using Granger causality, Johansen cointegration, error correction term causality tests and FMOLS estimates. Furthermore, we use the Hansen stability test of all these tests using LC, MeanF and SupF. The findings exhibit stable Sectorial configurations, indicating that there are some models with supply constraints and some others with financial constraints.
