This book was released on 2023-02-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of stock market in the process of economic development has been well recognised today. thedeveloping countries have started liberalising their financial markets giving considerable importance to the development of stock markets. However, in India stock market remained a dormant part of the financial system until the initiation of the structural adjustment programme . The structural adjustment programme implemented in a gradualistic pattern consisted of comprehensive fiscal, financial and external sector reforms. As part of it capital market reforms were launched.The process of reforms has led to a pace of growth of the stock market unparalleled in the history of any country. Stock market in India has grown exponentially as measured in terms of investor participation, amount raised from the market, number of stock exchanges and other intermediaries, number of listed stocks, trading volumes and turnover on the stock exchanges. Along with these physical changes, there has also been a change in the perception about stock markets and its role in the country's economic development. The present study aims to explore the impact of stock market development on the macro economy of the country, specifically in the post-reform period. It attempts to test the extent to which stock market development affects long-term economic growth, corporate capital structure, and behaviour of retail equity investors. The study also explores the direction of causality between stock prices and major macro economic variables.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The link between stock market development and economic activity has always been the subject of considerable debate in the field of economics and it raises empirical question whether stock market development influences economic activity or whether it is a consequence of increased economic activity. This study attempts to investigate the direction of causality between stock market development and economic growth in the Indian context. Using the cointegration and causality tests for the period June 1991 to June 2013, the study confirms a well defined long-run equilibrium relationship between the stock market development indicators and economic growth in India. The empirical results show bidirectional causality between market capitalisation and economic growth and unidirectional causality from turnover ratio to economic growth in the long-run and short-run. By and large, it can be inferred that the stock market development indicators viz. market capitalisation and turnover ratio have a positive influence on economic growth in India.

Download or read book Does Insider Trading Raise Market Volatility written by Mr.Julan Du and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2003-03-01 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper studies the role of insider trading in explaining cross-country differences in stock market volatility. The central finding is that countries with more prevalent insider trading have more volatile stock markets, even after one controls for liquidity/maturity of the market and the volatility of the underlying fundamentals (volatility of real output and of monetary and fiscal policies). Moreover, the effect of insider trading is quantitively significant when compared with the effect of economic fundamentals.

Recent advances in economic theory, econometrics, and information technology have fueled research in building broader, more accurate, and higher-frequency economic indicators. This volume contains contributions from a group of prominent economists who address alternative economic indicators, including indicators in the financial market, indicators for business cycles, and indicators of economic uncertainty.

Download or read book How Does Political Instability Affect Economic Growth written by Mr.Ari Aisen and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this paper is to empirically determine the effects of political instability on economic growth. Using the system-GMM estimator for linear dynamic panel data models on a sample covering up to 169 countries, and 5-year periods from 1960 to 2004, we find that higher degrees of political instability are associated with lower growth rates of GDP per capita. Regarding the channels of transmission, we find that political instability adversely affects growth by lowering the rates of productivity growth and, to a smaller degree, physical and human capital accumulation. Finally, economic freedom and ethnic homogeneity are beneficial to growth, while democracy may have a small negative effect.

This book was released on 2021-08-05 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indian capital market has undergone fast changes particularly since the initiation of new economic and financial reforms in the year 1992. In the Indian economy, moving in the direction of privatization, deregulation, liberalization and globalization, the role of capital and capital market can be overemphasized. A well-organized capital market is supposed to perform disciplinary, allocative and investor protective functions effectively and efficiently. This will lead to effective channelization of foreign as well as domestic capital flow for the overall economy's growth and development. However, few studies that have been done on the Indian Capital Market have left many essential issues untouched. This book in its attempt to fill this vacant empirically investigates the role of the capital market in economic development, various indicators of the development of the capital market in India, efficiency and seasonality in the capital market, volatility in the market and Investors' perception about Indian capital market, etc. The book has been divided into eight chapters.

Download or read book Geopolitical Risk on Stock Returns Evidence from Inter Korea Geopolitics written by Seungho Jung and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2021-10-22 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We investigate how corporate stock returns respond to geopolitical risk in the case of South Korea, which has experienced large and unpredictable geopolitical swings that originate from North Korea. To do so, a monthly index of geopolitical risk from North Korea (the GPRNK index) is constructed using automated keyword searches in South Korean media. The GPRNK index, designed to capture both upside and downside risk, corroborates that geopolitical risk sharply increases with the occurrence of nuclear tests, missile launches, or military confrontations, and decreases significantly around the times of summit meetings or multilateral talks. Using firm-level data, we find that heightened geopolitical risk reduces stock returns, and that the reductions in stock returns are greater especially for large firms, firms with a higher share of domestic investors, and for firms with a higher ratio of fixed assets to total assets. These results suggest that international portfolio diversification and investment irreversibility are important channels through which geopolitical risk affects stock returns.

Download or read book Globalization and Poverty written by Ann Harrison and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-11-01 with total page 674 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past two decades, the percentage of the world’s population living on less than a dollar a day has been cut in half. How much of that improvement is because of—or in spite of—globalization? While anti-globalization activists mount loud critiques and the media report breathlessly on globalization’s perils and promises, economists have largely remained silent, in part because of an entrenched institutional divide between those who study poverty and those who study trade and finance. Globalization and Poverty bridges that gap, bringing together experts on both international trade and poverty to provide a detailed view of the effects of globalization on the poor in developing nations, answering such questions as: Do lower import tariffs improve the lives of the poor? Has increased financial integration led to more or less poverty? How have the poor fared during various currency crises? Does food aid hurt or help the poor? Poverty, the contributors show here, has been used as a popular and convenient catchphrase by parties on both sides of the globalization debate to further their respective arguments. Globalization and Poverty provides the more nuanced understanding necessary to move that debate beyond the slogans.
