Abstract

This paper investigates the long-run relationship between the real private investment and the government investment in Saudi Arabia using a threshold cointegration test. The results show the stability of the private investment effect both above the threshold and mostly below the threshold. As if the negative discrepancies disappear more quickly than those positive which remain non-permanent. This finding reveals the strength of the Saudi Arabia economy in response to exogenous shocks and especially the negative ones.
