Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyse the interrelationship between natural resource export revenues and construction activities for a set of the OPEC countries over the period of 1980- 2013. By applying panel cointegration and panel causality tests, our results show that the Natural resources rents percentage of GDP (as a measure for natural resource export revenues) increases the GDP from construction industry (as a measure for construction activities) in the short-run but not in the long-run.
