摘要
We present a simple model which establishes a non-linear and possibly non-monotonic relationship between financial development and economic growth. Applying a threshold regression model to King and Levine's (Q. J. Econ. 109 (1993) 83) data set, we find evidence consistent with the theoretical model. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.
