Abstract :
Financial markets, including the stock market, with all the positive characteristics they have on the economic growth and development of countries, are influenced by micro and macro factors that increase the inherent risk of this market and affect the assets of investors. These factors in the theoretical literature include a wide range of variables, recently the quality of governance has been added to the sum of these variables, so that its effects are far more destructive than other factors. For this reason, increasing the governance quality of governments as economic trustees will be able to strengthen the financial markets, including the stock market and securities market, which is one of the important means of financing economic institutions and enterprises. Therefore, in this research, by using the ARDL test, long-term and short-term relationships between the variables of current stock market value (SMV) and governance quality (voice and accountability (VOA), political stability without violence (PON), government effectiveness (GOE), supervisory quality ( REQ), Rule of Law (RUF) and Corruption Control (COC)) in the period of 1374-1399 and using annual data were investigated in Iran. The results indicate that in the short and long term, the impact of governance quality on the value of the Iranian stock market is positive, so that among the governance quality indicators, the most impact is related to the regulatory quality variable (REQ) and the least impact is related to the rule of law variable (RUF).
