Prabirjit Sarkar

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: The paper analyses a new leximetric dataset for India relating to the protection of shareholders of the limited liability corporate sector and examines the impact of the changes in the shareholder protection law on economic development through stock market development. It finds no long-term relationship between corporate governance relating to shareholder protection and stock market developments and no relevance of stock market for economic development through capital accumulation.
