Abstract: This paper studies the causal relationship between inflation and economic growth in Qatar for the period of 1980 to 2016. A time series analysis of unit roots tests, Johansen cointegration method and Granger causality tests were applied on data. The variables were found to be cointegrated, hence a long run-relationship between them exists. Granger causality test found causality runs from inflation to economic growth.
