    This study aims to test the causal relationship between inflation and economic growth during the period (1990-2021) in Iraq.

The study recommends the implementation of monetary policies to reduce monetary growth. This could include reducing interest rates or implementing other monetary policies to control the increase in money supply, in addition to improving the supply by increasing production and enhancing efficiency in the economy.
