This study examined impact of capital market on economic growth in Nigeria from 1990 to 2022. Specifically, the study investigated the impact of market capitalisation on the economic growth in Nigeria; analysed the impact of all share index on the economic growth in Nigeria and examined the impact of inflation on growth in Nigeria. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) was used as a proxy for economic growth which is dependent variable while market capitalisation (MCAP), all share index (ASI) and inflation (INFR) were used as independent variables.
Also employed, Auto Regression Distributed Lag (ARDL) model as estimated technique.
The result revealed that Market capitalisation has a positive and significantly related to gross domestic product in the long run, all share index was found to be positive and insignificantly related on gross domestic product in the long run and lastly, inflation rate was found to be positive and insignificantly related to gross domestic product and concluded that capital market has a positive and insignificant impact on economic growth in Nigeria in the long run. Therefore, the study recommended that government should formulate appropriate economic policies that ensures the stability of share prices to encourage both national and foreign investors participation in capital market in Nigeria; that government should place greater emphasis on financial sector development with special focus on capital market development to ensure economic growth in Nigeria; that government through the regulatory authority should monitor the country’s inflation rate.
