In Iran, oil supplies the needed fuel and is the main source of foreign exchange earnings. Thereby, any volatility in oil prices will affect Iran's foreign exchange earnings at first and economic growth through time. This study, using Structural Vector Auto Regression (SVAR) model, investigates the effects of oil price volatility on economic growth of Iran through some institutional, monetary and financial variables during the period 1981-2017. The results show that the impulse of oil price volatility has a negative reaction from the growth of production. The index of democracy's reaction to the oil volatility is negative and, given its direct relation to production growth, overall production growth is reduced. Similarly, as for the government expenditures, it leads to reduced production growth. But the M2 has a positive reaction to the volatility of world crude oil prices and also has a positive effect on the production growth in the short run. The results also show that the most important variable affecting production growth changes in both the short and long run is the impact of government expenditures changes. Then, for achieving sustainable growth and using private sector dynamics, the assignment of public sector companies to the private sector based on the Article 44 of the Constitution should be followed.

In this paper, the effect of government expenditures with the volume of bank credits on economic growth in Iran, considering the role of monetary policy in the form of a dynamic stochastic genral equilibrium model is studied. for this purpose, we first defined a model consisting of households, production sector, government and oil, banks and intermediary financial institutions and the monetary status for the Iranian economy. Then, the model of the study was specified and the equations of each section were explained. After specifying the assumptions, characteristics and relationship of different parts of the model with each other, each section was optimized. After simulating the model, the model was fitted with real and simulated ratios and also using the torque variables and finally, the effects of the impuls response to the shock of government expenditures on the variables of production, consumption, investment, facilities and bank deposits were investigated that in many cases, the results have been consistent with the theoretical expectations and economic realities of the country
