N2 - Over the past four decades, Egypt and China have exhibited high growth rates, though at varying speed. Both
countries have gone through structural adjustment, liberalisation and privatisation programmes in the past
years. In this paper, we aim to examine the effects of privatisation, and FDI, along other economic
determinants, on the economic growth of China and Egypt over the period 1970s – 2010s; using cointegration
and error correction model (ECM). The preliminary results indicate that privatisation and FDI seem to have
significant effects on economic growth over the short run in China, while they affect economic growth in
Egypt over the long-run.
