Abstract

This study investigates the interrelationships between bond markets, economic growth, and institutional quality of middle-income countries from 2005 to 2020. We find that economic growth and institutional quality explain bond markets in the long run and short run. We find that there is an association between institutional quality, economic growth, bond market development.
