  ABSTRACT: Does religious freedom steer economic growth impact of trade-openness? This paper employs the method of moments-quantile regression to panel data of 117 developed and developing countries to show that countries that accommodate greater liberal religious beliefs enjoy, on average, higher growth in per capita income via deeper trade openness. Empirical results reveal that the dynamic nexus between trade and economic growth across developing countries is subject to the institutional environment. Therefore, results indicate that trade openness favours economic growth when institutional quality improves.
