THE IMPACT OF TRADE OPENNESS ON PER CAPITA INCOME IN KUWAIT
Journal Title: Asian Economic and Financial Review - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 5
Abstract
This research paper seeks to investigate the impact of trade openness on the per capita income of Kuwait. Its findings suggest that in Kuwait, trade openness has a negative impact on the per capita income. The results also suggest the existence of variables other than trade openness that may also affect the per capita income, such as income distribution, the structure of exports, and trade restrictions.
