Abstract: Institutional quality and financial development (FD) have been considered as two main key of economic growth in recent literature. Regarding institutional quality, it is an essential and necessary condition to enhance FD, so in this context suitable policies are demanded. Our main aim is to survey the effects of FD and institutional quality on economic growth for the case of Economic Development and Cooperation Organization Countries in 2002-2014, using Generalized moment method method of Dynamic Panel Data. Here also we have used the mean of opinion and response, political stability and lack of violence, administrative efficiency, quality of provisions and legality and corruption control as six institutional indicators as well as the ratio of available credits for private sector in banks to gross product as FD indicator. The results show that FD and institutional quality have a positive and significant effect on economic growth in selected countries. Furthermore, from interactive effect, we found that FD may cause economic growth in developed countries due to their opportune institutional structure.
