Journal Title: FOCUS: Journal of International Business - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 1

Abstract

Growth of a country is dependent upon growth of industries which, in turn, depends upon capital market conditions because this market is going to give an element which is most important for the success and failure of every industry i.e., funds. The Australian Securities Exchange market is the largest exchange in the world with market capitalisation of more than A$ 1.5 trillion. It is the finest and most advanced and automated exchange of the world. India is also having sophisticated stock exchange which is National Stock Exchange. The present paper made an attempt to investigate financial integration between NSE and ASX stock market taking daily closing index of ASX and NSE. The descriptive statistics showed NSE market provides slightly higher returns than ASX market. The results of Granger causality show that ASX does not Ganger cause return at NSE and NSE also does not Granger cause return at ASX. The Johansen Co-integration test also speaks about no co-integration between them. Therefore, during the study we did not find a strong financial integration between both the nations’ stock market.
