Abstract
Financial system is considered an important factor to enhance the productivity growth. Financial development (FD) is closely related with economic process as it leads to higher saving and efficiency. The nexus between FD and economic growth is increasingly well established. This paper measures the effect of development in financial sector on the total factor productivity (TFP) of Indian manufacturing sector for the period of 1998–2017. This study used autoregressive distributed lag co-integration approach and Granger causality test to investigate relationship between the financial development index (FDI) and productivity. The results of the study revealed that there is long-run association between FDI and productivity growth of manufacturing sector in India. The study also investigated that the unidirectional relationship exists between FD and TFP of Indian manufacturing sector from FDI to TFP change.
