THE STOCK EXCHANGE MARKET: CHALLENGES AND PROSPECTS
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1: BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
The financial system in any economy assumes the highest position in economic development. The Nigerian financial system consists of banks and non-bank financial institutions, financial markets, financial instruments of different kinds and duration, rules and regulations that guide the system as well as the mechanism by which the components of the system within the overall economic system interrelate. The financial market comprising of capital, money and foreign exchange markets, and a component of the Nigerian financial system acts as a conduit pipes through which scattered resources are mobilized to those deficit areas that will put it into productive use.
