From the supplier: World stock markets are booming and stock markets in developing countries account for a disproportionately large share of this growth. Since the mid-1980s, the total value of stocks listed in bourses all over the world has risen from $4.7 trillion to $15.2 trillion. Over the same period, the share of total world capitalization represented by emerging markets has also increased from less than 4% to nearly 13%. Recent evidence indicates that the strong performance of stock markets can play an important role in promoting economic development. Active stock exchanges create liquidity which, in turn, makes investments less risky. Empirical evidence strongly support the belief that greater stock market liquidity precedes and even bolsters economic expansion.
