Stock markets role in unlocking Sub-Saharan Africa private sector financing

This dataset examines the relationship between stock markets and private investment financing in 13 Sub-Saharan African countries from 2008 to 2022. The dataset includes variables extracted primarily from the World Bank Data such as gross fixed capital formation, stock market turnover ratio, liquid liabilities, gross domestic savings, and foreign direct investment. Supplementary credible data was also uploaded to complement missing values. Findings show that stock market turnover ratio and foreign direct investment positively impact private investment, while liquid liabilities and gross domestic savings have a negative impact. These insights provide valuable information for policy decisions and investment strategies in the region, highlighting the importance of stock market development and foreign direct investment in enhancing private investment in Sub-Saharan Africa.
