I uses useful seps and echniques o se up a regression based on he Mankiw-Romer-Weil model o answer wheher here is an evenually posiive effec of he sock marke developmens on he real economy. The resuls show a posiive impac of he marke capialisaion on he Gross Domesic Produc. The elasiciy of he marke capializaion o GDP is around This impac is also confirmed by an auoregressive vecor model via esimaion and impulse response funcions on boh oal and non oil GDP.

3 Inernaional Journal of Developmen and Susainabiliy Vol.3 No.8 (2014): Inroducion The heoreical lieraure on he role of he financial secor on economic growh and is implicaions in he differen sages of developmen has been widely discussed in recen years. However, i is ineresing o noe ha he endency of his lieraure has no remained consisen over ime. Thus, empirical invesigaion is becoming he main ool o assess for each counry or a group of counries, he role of financial secor on he real economic aciviy. Recenly, sock markes, as par of he whole financial sysem, are growing fas o compee he role of he banking inermediaion o spread savings among invesors. This benefi role could be offse by he insabiliy characerizing he sock marke and leading o negaive repercussions on he real economy (Winkler, 1998). Sock marke variables are very volaile inducing an uncerainy around he invesors expecaions and increasing he risk. A connexion beween he real secor and sock exchange marke ransmis he marke developmens o he real economic aciviy. Daa on Kuwai Sock Exchange shows ha marke capializaion is 16 imes volaile han GDP. We use Cobb-Douglas producion funcion augmened by sock marke and human capial variables o assess linkages beween he Sock Marke and he real secor. The resuls show ha he sock marke has a posiive impac on he economic aciviy. In wha follows, we firs describe he model. Second, we presen daa mehodology consrucion. In he hird secion we presen and discuss resuls. The fourh secion is for a VAR model esimaion o suppor he Cobb-Douglas model resuls and hen we conclude. 2. Describing he model The mehodology of he paper follows he same one as in (Arusha, 2010), applied o Kuwai sock marke series daa. I examines he influence of he sock marke on he real economy by exending he (Mankiw e al., 1992) model o incorporae a sock marke variable on i. The model sars from a Cobb-Douglas producion funcion form, linking he oupu level Y o he physical capial K and labour L as inpus: Y A. K. L (1) where, A is he oal facor produciviy erm and; and represen he shares of physical capial and labour respecively. Augmening he model by inroducing wo oher inpus, human capial H and he sock exchange marke variable S, he model becomes: Y A. K H S. L (2) where and are he shares of he human capial and marke capializaion. Scaling he model according o labour (dividing by L) and rearranging, hen inroducing he naural logarihm, we have he following equaion: Log ( Y / L ) c. K / L ). H / L ). S / L ). L ) (3) ISDS
4 Inernaional Journal of Developmen and Susainabiliy Vol.3 No.8 (2014): where c A), is a consan erm and 1capures he deviaion from consan reurns o scale. Puing small capials o design scaled variables we rewrie he preceden equaion as: Log y ) c. k ). h ). s ). L ) (4) ( This form allows inerpreing direcly he parameers as elasiciies and measures he impac of he inpus on he oupu. Our objecive is o assess, for he Kuwai, he relaionship beween he sock marke variable and he level of he economic aciviy; he Gross Domesic Produc. 3. Daa consrucion To esimae he previous equaion, we should have on our possession daa for GDP, capial sock, human capial, Marke capializaion as a proxy for he sock variable and labour. We use World Developmen Indicaors (WDI) o have GDP, Labour and marke capializaion. However, he capial sock and human capial are no observed. We consruced he capial sock according o he equaion: K ( 1 ) K I (5) 1 I simply means ha, he curren sock is generaed as he pas one K 1 depreciaed by some amoun K 1 and augmened by he curren flow of he invesmen I. δ is a depreciaion rae assumed equal 6% and he firs value K 2.5* GDP. Marke capializaion is observed since 1984, he official dae where he 0 Kuwai Sock Exchange becomes reorganized in an official body. The flow of invesmen is Gross Capial Formaion (GCF) from WDI daabase. As we do no have sufficien long ime series for real GCF, we use he GDP deflaor o have real GCF from nominal values. For missing values for , we use simple linear exrapolaion o fill he gap. Human capial is approached as he average years of schooling derived from he gross enrolmen school as percen of populaion aged 15 and over for primary, secondary and eriary schooling. Barro and Lee have consruced a large daabase for 146 counries, including Kuwai, from 1950 ill 2010, by sex and by 5 years inervals ( We use linear exrapolaion o fill in he gap in order o display a complee ime series of human capial. 4. Esimaion The model is implemened in EViews. The marke capializaion used o es he relaionship beween GDP and he KSE marke is available only from 1988 ill 2010, wih wo missing values for 1990 and We handled he probelem by using backward exrapolaion for he period and forward exrapolaion for he wo preceden years. The esimaion is in log level and no in differences alhough he variables are no saionnary. This approach is deffended for he fondamenal following reason. The relaionship beween finance and growh is 1808 ISDS
5 Inernaional Journal of Developmen and Susainabiliy Vol.3 No.8 (2014): raher a long run relaionship han shor run. In economerics and saiscis, he long run is seen o be he common economic rend of he daa in level, while he shor run is he volailiy of he growh rae series. However, running regressions in general is governed by a lo of probabiliy laws and hypohesis o check. Saisical ess are used o assess he qualiy of he esimaed model. Table 1 shows long run (levels) and shor run (growh raes) correlaion marices. There is an imporan posiive correlaions beween oal GDP, non oil GDP and marke capializaion in levels ( abou 80%). In growh raes, he correlaions are sill posiive bu weaker. However, he correlaion is only an indicaion of saisical linkages and does no mean causaliy. The causaliy issue is discussed in he fourh secion. Table 1.

The elasiciy is highly acceped and is, 25.8% and 27.6% for he whole sample ( ) and respecively for he wo specificaions. Considering he reduced sample where all he daa are observed, he coefficien is arround 17%. The impac of he human capial is rejeced; he p-values associaed wih are superiors o 5%, which means ha here is no effec of human capial on he economic aciviy. This resuls should be considered wih precauion regarding he mehod of daa exrapolaion of human capial. The coeffiecien μ is also rejeced in he unresriced specificaion. A wald hypohesis es of he nulliy of boh and confirm he nulliy of hese coefficiens. F-Saisic probabiliies are respecively 0.14 and 0.22 for he samples and The second column of he able presens a resriced specificaion ( 0 ) which implies ha he Cobb-Douglass producion funcion exibi a consan reurns o scale confirmed by he nulliy of his coefficien as shwon in he firs column. The hird column presens he resuls wihou considering he human capial rejeced in he firs and second esimaion. The overall properies are unchanged over boh samples. For all esimaions, Durbin- Wason is around 1.60 over and 1.86 over indicaing he absence of auocorelaions especially on he shorer sample where daa are no compleed by exrapolaion.

7 Inernaional Journal of Developmen and Susainabiliy Vol.3 No.8 (2014): VAR model assessmen A Vecor Auo-Regressive (VAR) model, iniiaed by (Sims, 1980) is a sysem in which each componen of he vecor explains he dependan variable by is proper pas values and he pas values of he oher variables presen in he sysem. To esimae a VAR model, we firs deermine he opimal lag o inroduce in he model. All he selecion crieria concorde abou he firs lag. Then, a Granger causaliy es is conduced and show ha causaliy run ou from marke capializaion o boh oal GDP and non oil GDP (Table 3). The opposie direcion is rejeced a he 5% probabiliy hreshold. Johansen ess rejec any relaionship of coinegraion beween GDP (for boh oal and non oil) and marke capializaion. Table 4 presens he oupu es for boh GDP and non oil GDP and marke capializaion. I shows ha race es indicaes no coinegraion a he 5% level according o MacKinnon- Haug-Michelis (1999) p-values. We conclude ha he final sysem beween GDP and marke capializaion is a sandard VAR wih one lag. Table 3.

9 Inernaional Journal of Developmen and Susainabiliy Vol.3 No.8 (2014): Conclusion We esed in his paper he impac of marke capializaion on he economic aciviy level in he long run. We used for his purpose a model derived from heoreical economic approach and afer several ess and esimaions, we conclude ha here is effecively a posiive effec of he sock marke exchange over he GDP in Kuwai. The elasiciy is on average around 20% meaning ha an increase in he sock marke capializaion by 1% implies he GDP increase by 0.2%. A sandard VAR model also confirm his effec. However, he resuls may suffer from he shorcoming of he daa and shor samples. While he paper presens an individual case of an oil exporing counry, he work could be exended o panel daa over he group of he GCC counries or oil exporing counries. References Arusha, C.
