Abstract
The main aim of this study is to reveal the causality relationship between education expenditures index with
finance sector development index and economic growth in North Cyprus. After producing indexes, Vector Error
Correction Model (VECM), Granger Causality Analysis, Impulse Responses and Variance Decompositions are run to
check the short and long term relationships. Findings show us that there are both long and short term bidirectional
relationships amongst education expenditure index and financial development index with the Gross Domestic Product
(GDP) growth in North Cyprus.
