The impact of foreign direct investment on economic growth in Libya
Journal Article


The study examined the impact of FDI on economic growth in Libya, the study relied on statistical analysis techniques for SPSS, after analyzing the data using several techniques for statistical analysis or revealing the relationship between independent variables (foreign investment, labor force, the inflation rate in the economy) And the dependent variable (growth rate in the Libyan economy) for 16 years during the period 2000-2015. In the light of data analysis, a quantitative approach was used using self-regression analysis. The results of the normative analysis of the relationship between growth rate In Libya and some independent variables, the increase in foreign direct investment by 1% leads to an increase in GDP by 0.215%, the estimated public line gave the best results, and this satisfies the assumption that increasing foreign direct investment leads to a high rate of economic growth in Libya.

Conditional correlations and volatility spillovers between crude oil and stock index returns of Middle East countries
Journal Article

This paper reveals the conditional correlations and fluctuation spillovers between oil price shocks and stock markets indices in Middle East countries, over the period from March 2000 to March 2015, by using the BEKK-GARCH, DCC-GARCH models. The results show strong evidence of fluctuation spillovers between the price of WTI to all exporting and oil importing stock indexes. The results further show that the estimates of the conditional correlations are always significant. Time-varying correlations of crude oil and stock index do not differ from oil-exporter or oil-importer countries. Crude oil price shocks have a significant impact on the relationship between crude oil and stock indices in the world crisis periods. The extent of the influence stock market collapse in 2008 crisis on the correlation coefficients is much more important than those of the previous financial crises.

The impact of oil price fluctuations on the exchange rate in Libya
Journal Article

The aim of this paper was to investigate the influence of oil price fluctuations on the nominal exchange rate of US dollar in Libya, we have used vector error correction estimates (VECM) test through monthly time series data covering the period between January 2000 to December 2015. This is an important topic for study due to price oil volatility can affect a country's terms of trade which can affect its competitiveness. The experimental results revealed for a bidirectional causality relationship between prices of oil and exchange rate. Additionally, the findings reveal that a 10% rise in the oil price coincides with a 27% exchange rate depreciation in the long run and that the causality runs from oil to the dollar. This implies that prices of oil are an important variable in determining the strength of the currency and its volatility. Therefore, the Libya government should consider the influences of oil prices when formulating and implementing economies policies especiall the nominal exchange rate policies as this will help to enhance the exchange rate in Libya. Additionally, diversify more their economics.

Crude oil prices and economic development in Libya
Journal Article

This paper aims to examine the effects of oil price shocks on the economical development in Libya during the period 1968-2016, using annual data. A unit root test was conducted, in which the series was shown to be non-stationary in the level, and all variables became stationary in the first difference.. The co-integration model was applied, and the results indicated that there is a long-term relationship of oil prices on the economical development. Finally, this study concludes that increases in oil price did not significantly affect the manufacturing sector in aggregate terms. Moreover, the negative impact on the sector of agriculture Thus, this study has a significant impact in the Libyan economy in policy development on oil prices. The Libyan government needs to control the price to make sure that price volatility will not harm the manufacturing, agriculture and construction sectors.

The effects of oil price volatility on the economic sectors of Libya
Journal Article

Fluctuations in oil price and its impact on economic development is an important issue facing a growing number of world economies. A simple changes in oil prices lead to negative or positive effects on all the economic sectors. This paper seeks to investigate the impact of oil price volatility on economic sectors in the Libyan economy context on the basis of annual data spanning from 1968-2012. The Johansen based Co-integration technique is applied to examine the sensitivity of economic sectors to volatility in oil prices in the long-run. And the short-run relationship is tested by Vector Error Correction Model. Through examining the results, that there is a long-term relationship of oil prices on the agriculture, construction, manufacturing and transport sectors. Finally, this study concludes that increases in oil price did not significantly affect the manufacturing sector in aggregate terms. Moreover, the negative impact on the sector of manufacturing and agriculture. Thus, this study has a significant impact in the Libyan economy in policy development on oil prices. The Libyan government needs to control the price to make sure that price volatility will not harm the manufacturing, agriculture, construction and transport sectors.

The effects of fluctuations of oil price on economic growth of Libya
Journal Article


Since the first oil price fluctuation in 1973s, macroeconomists have viewed sharp movements in the price of oil are generally as an important source of economic fluctuations. Furthermore, the very recent highs registered in the crude oil market are causing concern about possible slowdowns in the economies of many developed countries and it has a significant role in the economic growth of Libya. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of fluctuations in oil prices on Libya's economic growth. This is achieved by the use of (VAR) modal and co-integration techniques. In this respect, the relation between two variables will be analyzed by using annual data from 2000 to 2015. The results indicate that both series are integrated of order one I (1), having a long-term relationship between crude oil price and growth. The estimates suggest that higher oil price has a positive and statistically important impact on the economic growth of Libya.

The Influence of Organisational Culture on the Adoption of MAPs among Companies Operating in Libya: Contingency Perspective.
Journal Article

Purpose: This study sought mainly to investigate the effect of organisational culture on the adoption of management accounting practices (MAPs) in terms of product cost, budgeting, performance measures and decision support practices among companies operating in Libya, using selection and interaction approaches of the contingency theory.

Methodology: data was collected from 107 companies operating in Libya using a self-administered questionnaire survey. The data analysed using simple regression analysis to test the Hypothesis related to the selection approach and MACRO sobel test adopted for estimating the indirect effect in simple mediation model to test Hypotheses related to interaction approach.

Findings: the findings of the hypothesis related to the selection approach revealed that organisational culture as an overall is statistically significant in predicting the adoption of all individual groups of MAPs and the adoption of MAPs as an overall at p value < .05. Furthermore, the findings indicated that the adoption of MAPs play partial mediation role as individual groups and as an overall on the relationship between organisational culture and organisational performance.

Originality: since, the vast majority of the previous studies mainly concerned on examining the influence of organisational culture on MCS represented by a small number of MCS or specific MAPs, and most of these studiesbased only on the selection approach to examine such relationship.This study provides significant contributions towards the understanding of the organisational culture influence on the adoption of broad range of MAPs, and indicates the intervening effect between these two factors on the organisational performance using two approaches of contingency theory.

Keywords: MAPs: product cost practices; budgeting practices; performance measurement practices; decision support practices; organisational culture; organisational performance.
