ABSTRACT: This study aims to analyze the effect of foreign direct investment (FDI), financial development (FD), and trade openness (TO) on the economic growth of emerging markets. The method used is Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) to identify the short-term and long-term effects between variables. The estimation results show that in the long term FDI, FD and TO show positive and significant values on economic growth while in the short term FDI shows positive but not significant values on economic growth, only FD and TO show positive and significant values on the economic growth of Emerging Markets countries. Therefore, it is expected that countries that are members of Emerging Markets take strategic steps to improve the financial sector and international trade between developing countries.
