It is concluded that there is a granger causality relationship between capital market dynamics, banking credit, and economic growth. The capital market dynamic has a positive and significant impact on the economic growth of Nigeria, further bank credits significantly impacted economic growth positively in Nigeria. Based on the findings from the study, we recommend that investors should be encouraged with necessary incentives so as to increase the volume and value of equities being traded in Nigeria, thus widening the range of investment opportunities as well as increasing productivity. Further, the government should do everything possible to provide a safe and conducive investment climate by nipping in the bud the prevalent activities of terrorists and kidnappers. This will not only encourage Nigerian investors but also attract foreign investors into the Nigerian capital market
