  • 摘要:

    The study investigates whether the stock market in Ghana contributes to the growth of the Ghanaian economy using quarterly data (2006Q1–2013Q2). A bounds testing approach to cointegration and Granger causality in the vector error correction model are used for analysis. The results of the cointegration analysis indicate that there is a long-run cointegrating relationship between stock market development and economic growth. The results of the causality analysis demonstrate that there is a unidirectional causality running from stock market development to economic growth. However, since the long-run regression analysis shows a negative relationship between stock market development and economic growth, we conclude that stock market development does not promote economic growth in Ghana.
