AB - Reacting to the economic recession, governments are rethinking the role of regulatory reform as a vital strategy to stimulate the economy and create jobs. While many studies have explored the impacts of regulatory reform on economic growth and employment, it is still controversial as to what extent regulatory reform can play a role to regain economic vitality under the circumstances of economic uncertainty. Utilizing the panel data of OECD countries from 2000 to 2013, this paper analyzes whether changes in the level of regulation have led to economic growth and employment. Results of empirical tests demonstrate that deregulation-oriented regulatory reform has positive impacts on GDP growth and employment in OECD countries. Based on the findings, this paper concludes that reforming regulatory policies in a way to expand more freedom and autonomy in the market by relieving regulatory burden can be a key pro-growth and pro-employment strategy to cope with economic slowdown.
