| summary | The stock market development promotes economic growth by facilitating savings mobilisation and capital formation. Evidence from developed markets reveals that the stock market development tends to be associated with key macroeconomic variables and economic growth. However, this linkage has not been adequately addressed in African countries, particularly Nigeria. The main objective of this study is to investigate the influence of stock market development on economic growth in Nigeria by employing time series data from 1989 to 2013. The Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model is employed to empirically examine the relationship between stock market development and economic growth. The findings indicate the existence of a long-run relationship among the variables. In the long-run, stock turnover and value of shares traded indicate a positive relationship with economic growth. The results of Granger-causality test suggest a bidirectional relationship between stock turnover and economic growth. However, a unidirectional causality runs from value of stock transaction to economic growth. The findings show that higher value of stock transactions and stock turnover may increase the ability of stock market to foster economic growth. Therefore, policy makers should strengthen the reforms in the stock market financial sector for sustainable economic growth in Nigeria. |
