Efficient Capital Markets: A Review of Specialized Literature and Methodology on Nigerian Stock Market
The efficiency of securities market has generated a lot of controversy over four decades in finance and economic discussions leading to some people accepting or rejecting the efficient market hypothesis. Hence this paper examines the growing body of empirical research on efficient market hypothesis on the Nigerian capital market for the past twelve years (2010-2021). The paper particularly surveys empirical research and specialized literature as it relates to the Nigerian capital market. The paper is purely empirical research that have been published in various academic journals on the Nigerian capital market. Findings from the empirical research show that there has been no consensus on the efficiency of the Nigerian capital market. However, the market seems to be efficient in the weak-form. The conclusion of this paper is that there are inherent difficulties in testing for market efficiency in developing countries capital market due to certain market imperfections that could affect the informational efficiency of the market.
期刊介绍:
In legislation and in case law, European law has become a steadily more dominant factor in determining national European company laws. The “European Company”, the forthcoming “European Private Company” as well as the Regulation on the Application of International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS Regulation”) have accelerated this development even more. The discussion, however, is still mired in individual nations. This is true for the academic field and – even still – for many practitioners. The journal intends to overcome this handicap by sparking a debate across Europe on drafting and application of European company law. It integrates the European company law component previously published as part of the Zeitschrift für Unternehmens- und Gesellschaftsrecht (ZGR), on of the leading German law reviews specialized in the field of company and capital market law. It aims at universities, law makers on both the European and national levels, courts, lawyers, banks and other financial service institutions, in house counsels, accountants and notaries who draft or work with European company law. The journal focuses on all areas of European company law and the financing of companies and business entities. This includes the law of capital markets as well as the law of accounting and auditing and company law related issues of insolvency law. Finally it serves as a platform for the discussion of theoretical questions such as the economic analysis of company law. It consists of articles and case notes on both decisions of the European courts as well as of national courts insofar as they have implications on European company law.
