Study of stock market management in reference to institutional investment

Abstract

The institutional investors, whether the DII (Domestic Institutional Investor) or FII (Foreign Institutional Investor) contribute to the growth and management of stock market. The stock market is very dynamic in nature and the volatility is prevalent across. It is important to understand the relation of different institutional investors on the stock market. Foreign institutional investors and Domestic institutional investors are two major sources from which the stock market receives its investment. Thereby, it is necessary to understand the cause and effect of these investments on the stock market. The flow of fund from the foreign investors is one of the reasons for the growth of Indian Stock Market. The cause-and-effect study gives us a better picture of the stock market movement and this study focuses on finding the same. The study will help investors and stockbrokers to understand the movement of the stock market in a better way. In this study, cause and effect between the FIIs, DIIs and Stock Market returns is analysed. The statistical tools used for analysis are Granger Causality test and Johansen Co-integration test. Both the statistical tool used are reliable and the expected results will be highly beneficial for the investors at large. The results shows that there is cause and effect relation between the FII and DII, but the co-integration between the FIIs, DIIs and stock market is absent. The study will contribute in understanding the behavior of stock market.
