The estimation of the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) related to the data of 1995 to 2020 showed that among the variables, arable land per worker, Domestic credit to private sector by banks and stocks traded turnover ratio of domestic shares respectively with coefficients of 5.94, 4.51 and 3.25 have the greatest effect on the export. The total effect of each of the policies of financial and trade liberalization is 2.81 and -1.5, respectively.
