1.1Background to the Study
The role of long-term capital in the economic development of a nation cannot be overemphasized. Most economic managers recognize that a well organized many developing countries; capital has been a major constraint to economic development.
The Nigerian economic has over the years been subject to series of social, political and economic policies and reforms. In the pre-1970 era, the economic was basically agrarian and food security was largely achieved with the various regional governments then. The need to encourage private capital in development was realized long enough, with the establishment of the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSC), then called the Lagos Stock Exchange in 1961 to develop the capital market (Alile & Anao, 1986).
The capital market is a highly specialized and organized financial market and indeed essential agent of economic development because of its ability to facilitate and mobilize savings and investment. The capital market provides the much needed liquidity making documentary evidence of ownership of securities trade-able (Sule & Momoh, 2009, p. 67). To a great extent, the positive relationship between capital accumulation and real economic growth has long been affirmed in economic theories (Anyanwu, 1996).
