Abstract

This research investigated the effect of bond insurance premiums on market capitalization in Nigeria using data gathered from the World Development Indicator, Global Financial Development Database, and the Central Bank of Nigeria statistical bulletin, from 2000 to 2023. The data were analyzed using the ARDL co-integration approach, and the results showed that, although only in the long run, bond insurance premiums had a positive effect on market capitalization in Nigeria, as did bond insurance claims. The result shows normality test statistics of 1.641757 (p > 0.05), LM test statistics of 0.2124238 (p > 0.05), heteroscedasticity test statistics of 0.241894 (p > 0.05) indicate that the assumption of normality, homoscedasticity and no serial autocorrelation are satisfied. Also, that bond insurance premiums and claims positively affect market capitalization, with a significant long-term impact of 0.93% and 1.89%, respectively. Finally, there was no causal relationship between bond insurance premiums and market capitalization in Nigeria. According to the study's findings, bond insurance significantly contributes to the expansion of Nigeria's capital market. As a result, financial sector regulators must encourage bond issuers to participate in bond insurance programs in order to increase market capitalization in the nation.
