Hence, the economic activities performed by both countries have a higher possibility to affect other countries’ economic conditions due to the presence of economic integration among the countries. The study aims to investigate the US-China economy impact which is proxied by a balance of trade (BOT), net foreign direct investment (FDI), and exchange rate (ER) on the economic growth of OIC member countries (EG). The study utilizes data from 1979-2018 and adopts Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) then applies a bounds testing approach to measure the short and long-run relationship between independent and dependent variables. The finding of the study shows that there is a long-run cointegration between the US-China economy impact on the economic growth of OIC member countries. The short-run ARDL model also indicates that all the independent variables have a significant relationship with the economic growth of OIC member countries across the regions. Originality/Value: The study comprehends as well as provides a new insight on the influence of the US and China's economic activities on OIC member countries’ economies.]]>
