Abstract

This paper examines the long run and causal relationship between financial sector development and
industrialization in Nigeria for the period 1981 to 2011 using time series data. Results from a multivariate VAR and
vector error correction model provide evidence of long run relationship between financial sector development and
industrialization in Nigeria. The two measures of financial development had contrasting effects on industrial output.
Ratio of private sector bank credit to GDP has a positive relationship with industrial output while the ratio of broad
money stock to GDP has a negative relationship with industrial output. Granger causality test reveals long-run
unidirectional causal link running from industrialization to financial development. There is therefore the urgent
need for government to consolidate on past financial sector reforms to address the challenges of financial
intermediation in the domestic financial sector to improve loan disbursement to the industrial sector of the Nigerian
economy.

Keywords: Financial Sector Development, Industrialization, Cointegration, Granger Causality
