| dc.description.abstract | This research made an assessment of factors that affected the development of capital market in Tanzania. The study based on the premises that there were notable developments of securities market in the country, but the public response was still small. The research was conducted at Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange specifically in Dar es Salaam where most of the securities market stakeholders in Tanzania were based. The data was collected through documentary sources, focus group discussion and questionnaires. Simple linear regression analyses and Chi-Square test were applied to determine the relationship between independent and depended variables. Results of the data analysis using regression and Chi-square analyses provided evidence to support the hypotheses formulated by this study, implying that significant relationships exist between capital market reforms, transaction costs and information disclosure with the growth of Capital Market in Tanzania. It was concluded that capital market reforms have positive effects, while transaction costs and information disclosure have negative effects towards the growth of capital market in Tanzania. It was recommended that the Government, CMSA, DSE and the brokers should educate and inform the public concerning the operations of stock market through training, promotion, seminars and media. In addition to that, issuers were argued to be ready to grab the opportunities available in the capital market, rather than keeping their firms away from the public for fear of disclosing affairs of their companies as well as fear of dilution of control. | en_US |
