Abstract
This paper examines the infrastructural investment bottleneck hypothesis for
Pakistan: have shortages in infrastructure investment constrained manufacturing
output in Pakistan, as recently suggested by the World Bank? Using Granger
causality techniques, we find evidence that the hypothesis does hold true for
Pakistan, although the general pattern between public sector investment and
manufacturing output is one of little coordination between the two sectors.
