摘要：Abstract The study examined the impact of aid on economic growth in Ghana for the period 1970–2011. Using the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) methodology; the findings of the study suggest that foreign aid had a positive effect in the short run but has a negative effect in the long run. The investment and government consumption variables were significantly related to economic growth, while financial depth and trade did not have a significant impact on economic growth of Ghana. The findings of the study indicate that one size fits all strategy for the allocation of official development assistance might not be optimal.
