Over the past years, countries have used private capital inflows to enhance and deepen the growth of their stock market. Using time-series data between 1981 to 2017, the study deployed the dynamic ordinary least square (DOLS) and Granger causality techniques to examine the effect of private capital inflows on stock market development and also the direction of causality. The study outcome revealed that FDI positively and significantly affects the development of stock market in the country. Besides, the study outcome also showed that portfolio investment has a positive link with the country stock market development. In addition, the study also showed that FDI Granger cause stock market development. Drawing from the outcome of the study, it is recommended that the government should continuously implement and improve policies that attract FDI into the country to enhance and deepen the nation’s stock market. Besides, the monetary policy needs to continuously improve policy on portfolio investment to tackle its inherent nature, which is volatile.

Abstract

Do public capital inflows and domestic investment spur economic growth in the emerging market? To answer this question, this study investigated the effect of public capital inflows and domestic investment on growth in emerging markets and also the interactive effect of public foreign capital inflows and domestic investment growth in an emerging market, Nigeria between the period 1981 to 2017. The study used economic growth as the dependent variable, while public capital inflows (aid and foreign borrowing) and domestic investment as independent variables. In line with theories and empirical literature the following control variables (human capital, labour, inflation, and exchange) were also employed in the study. Findings from the study showed that foreign borrowing has an adverse effect on growth, whereas aid and domestic investment positively spur growth in Nigeria. The study outcome also showed that the interaction of foreign aid and domestic investment is positive and statistically significant an indication that the effect of foreign aid on growth depends on domestic investment. This, therefore, indicates a complementarity relationship between aid and domestic investment. Based on the study outcome, the government should attract more foreign aid into the country to increase the level of domestic investment and spur growth. The government needs to be cautious when using foreign borrowing to finance developmental projects. The terms and conditions including the rate of interest, principal repayment need to study carefully to avoid unnecessary burdens on the citizenry. It is also recommended that the borrowed fund should be tied to productive investment and not white elephant projects.
