This article investigates the pattern of trade specialization and productivity of exports on economic growth in MENA countries during 2009-2001 using generalized method of moments discussed. The results showed that there is a positive effect on exports and productivity indicators and the negative effect of exports on economic growth indicators heterogeneity between industrial, commercial and trade on economic growth. Among the indicators, only the effect of concentration of exports on economic growth is consistent with the theory that the cause of its extreme dependence on oil economies is of MENA region.
