Abstract

The vector author egression model (VAR) was employed to examine the impact of control of corruption on economic growth of Botswana covering the period of 1996-2014. The results show that government effectiveness, exports of goods and services are significant at 0.03 and 0.07 respectively and have a positive relationship with gross domestic product growth. The Control of corruption is not significant but has positive relationship with economic growth. However, many efforts should continue to be directed towards corruption because as economy grows fast there are temptations as well economy diversifications in agriculture, financial services and textiles for new opportunities for growth.
