The purpose of this research is to examine the relationship between financial development and innovation and economic growth. In order to investigate research hypotheses, linear regression was used for manufacturing companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange between 2013 and 2017. In this research, financial development (financial depth, financial stability and financial efficiency) is considered as an independent variable and innovation and economic growth as a dependent variable. Based on the systematic elimination method, 107 companies were selected as the statistical sample of this research. The research results show that there is a positive and significant relationship between financial depth, financial stability and financial efficiency and innovation of manufacturing companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange. Also, there is a positive and significant relationship between financial depth, financial stability and financial efficiency and economic growth. As financial development plays an important role in economic growth, it can be said that one of the causes of low economic growth in countries with abundant resources is due to their low level of financial development. Therefore, financial development can lead to economic growth if it can provide the right context for the optimal allocation of resources and increase capital efficiency.
