Abstract

This paper extensively explores the intricate interplay between domestic investments, exports, and the long-term economic growth of Angola. By leveraging a robust dataset spanning from 2002 to 2022, we apply rigorous econometric methods, including cointegration analysis and the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model, to unveil the subtle dynamics among these crucial economic indicators. Contrary to conventional expectations, our analysis uncovers a surprising result: there is no apparent impact of domestic investments and exports on the sustained economic growth of Angola. These findings challenge established economic paradigms and emphasized the imperative need for a thorough reassessment of existing economic policies within the country.
