Book Description
The world economy is facing the most severe financial crisis since the Great Depression of the last century. The risk of global recession has heightened significantly and volatility of commodity prices, which is the mainstay of most developing countries like Nigeria, has increased further. If this situation continues to deteriorate, developing countries could be in great jeopardy. This study examined the influence of the Global Financial Crisis on Nigerian economy. It was discovered that the financial crisis will cause fall in commodity prices, decline in export, lower portfolio and FDI inflow, fall in equity market, decline in remittance from abroad etc. It was recommended that the federal government should come up with intervention policies that will minimize these effects and jump start the economy and that business operator should learn to do things using resources at their disposal to develop and expand at manageable level to stem the tide of the crisis.

There is significant relationship between global financial crisis and capital market in Nigeria. Some of the recommendations made in this study are that. There is an urgent need for the total overhaul of regulations and regulatory framework, in order to enhance both the on-site and off-site examination and supervision of the banks. There is the need for increased and enhanced provisions for consumer protection. Nigerian economy is a mono-economy; any crash on the price of oil internationally will cripple our economy. So it is a matter of urgency for the Nigerian economy to divest into agriculture, manufacturing, information technology etc. Political stability is an important factor that encourages investment in an economy. So our nascent democracy should be nurtured.

Nigerian financial market being one of the emerging global markets have over the last four years witnessed some significant level of progress and stability in the form of recapitalization and consolidation of its financial institutions. These reforms though commendable, yet could not shield the banks and the entire economy from the global financial crisis. This study identifies the trends and implications of the global financial crisis on the Nigerian economy.Methodology/Technique - Descriptive analysis through secondary sources of data employed. A stratified sampling method adopted to select between the two strata that are the strongest and the weakest in terms of capital based. Four organizations were chosen from each stratum making eight banks and the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) as the sample size of the study.Findings - This study identifies the trends and implications of the global financial crisis on the Nigerian economy. It was observed that Nigerian banks are open to global practices and business relationships with foreign banks that are badly affected by the crisis. While investors lose confidence in the Nigerian markets as stocks and oil fall drastically almost daily. This has almost resulted in drastic cut in the foreign capital inflow for the country.Novelty - Based on the above findings the study recommends that Nigerian government should diversify the economy by improving the state of infrastructure, intensify the war against corruption, propose bailout measures for privatized companies and ensure fair and sincere democracy.Type of Paper: Conceptual.

Book Description
This book is the outcome of a South-South conference jointly organized by the Asian Political and International Studies Association (APISA), the Latin American Council of Social Sciences (CLACSO) and the Council for the Development of Social Science Research in Africa (CODESRIA) in Dakar, Senegal, May 2012. The conference was organised in response to the financial crisis of 2008 which started in the United States and Europe, with reverberating effects on a global scale. Economic problems emanating from such crises usually leave major social and structural impacts on important sectors of the society internationally. They affect living standards and constrain the well-being of people, especially in poor countries. Persistent problems include high unemployment, increased debt and low growth in developed countries, as well as greater difficulties in accessing finance for investment in the developing world. There is a need for countries in the South to examine the available options for appropriate national and regional responses to the different problems emanating from the economic crisis. This book attempts to provide ideas on some strategic responses to the disastrous impact of the crisis, while keeping in mind the global common interest of the South. It is hoped that the book will contribute significantly towards the agenda to rethink development and the quest for alternative paradigms for a just, stable and equitable global political, economic and social system. A system in which Africa, Asia, and Latin America are emancipated from the shackles of hegemonic and anachronistic neoliberal dictates that have nothing more to offer than crises, vulnerabilities and dependency.
