We address this issue by focusing on stock exchange markets as the predominant type of new equity markets. The dissertation deep dives into the effects of the implementation of stock markets by focusing on the GDP per capita and on GDP per capita growth. It uses the Diff-in-Diff regression method. The analysis uses a panel data set on 48 Sub-Saharan countries over the time range of 1970-2018. 23 countries are part of the "treated" group, which introduced international stock exchanges, and 25 "untreated" countries serve as control group. Further, I will investigate the impact of new stock exchange markets on each year to follow their introduction until year 10. The results are rather interesting. Compared to the time period prior to the introduction of stock exchange markets, GDP per capita rises by the amount of 532 US$ (around 40% of the Sub-Saharan average) after the introduction in treated countries. The coefficient is significant on a 5% level. In the 10 years post introduction, the effect is hump-shaped, with effects becoming statistically significant from the first year after implementation and peaking in year 5 and no statistically significant effect from year 6 onwards.Instituto Superior de Economia e GestãoAfonso, AntónioRepositório da Universidade de LisboaReimers, Max Rene2020-12-13T18:01:36Z2020-102020-10-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.5/20641engReimers, Max Rene (2020).
