Abstract

This paper aims to study the interaction between the control of corruption, investment and economic growth in the MENA region. Our empirical essay attempts to clarify the direct and indirect control of corruption on economic growth through investment in the period 1984-2012 in the MENA region while using the model of simultaneous equations.
