Abstract

This study examines the impact of the capital market on the economic growth of Nigeria. Time-series of data on Gross Domestic Product, Equity, Government stock, Bond and Preference shares as well as foreign direct investment between 1985 and 2019 were collected from the CBN statistical bulletin, the SEC bulletin and the World Economic Indicators. The Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model was used with the aid of E-view 10. The result of the analysis reveals a long-run relationship between economic growth and the capital market. ARDL bound test shows equity, government stock has a significant positive relationship with economic growth while foreign direct investment and bonds & preference shares have an insignificant negative relationship with economic growth. The (ECM) indicates yearly convergence of approximately 44 % of short-run shock or disequilibrium is corrected. It is therefore recommended that the government through the NSE policies should be geared to encourage more private limited liability companies and informal sector operators to access the market for fresh (equity) capital and the government should curtail the spate of insecurity to boost investor confidence in the Nigerian business environment.
