Abstract

This study examines the relationship between financial development and economic growth across Chinese provinces with switching causality. Four states are considered: bidirectional causality (state 1); one-way causality from growth to finance (state 2); one-way causality from finance to growth (state 3); and non-causality (state 4). While state 3 dominates in developed regions, states 1 and 3 occur intermittently in other regions. This implies that the demand for financial services induced by local economic growth plays a stronger role in driving financial development in under-developed regions. Consistent with prior research, bank loans negatively affect economic growth in China.
