The negotiated loan market is a market in which the lender and the borrower personally negotiate the terms of the loan agreement, e.g. a businessman borrowing from a bank or from a small loan company. On the other hand, the open market is an impersonal market in which standardized securities are treated in large volumes. The stock market is an example of an open market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The financial markets in a nutshell, could mean:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Organization that facilitate the trade in financial products i.e. stock exchanges facilitate the trade in stocks, bonds and warrants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. The coming together of buyers and sellers to trade financial products i.e. stocks and shares are traded between buyers and sellers in a number of ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. The participants of these markets are financial institutions, agents, brokers, dealers, borrowers, lenders, savers and other who are inter linked by the laws, contracts and communication networks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FUNCTIONS_OF_FINANCIAL_MARKETS\"><\/span><strong>FUNCTIONS OF FINANCIAL MARKETS<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"530\" src=\"https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image.png\" alt=\"FINANCIAL MARKET NOTES PDF\" class=\"wp-image-6219\" srcset=\"https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image.png 900w, https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-300x177.png 300w, https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-768x452.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Functions of financial markets<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"ECONOMIC_FUNCTIONS\"><\/span><strong>ECONOMIC FUNCTIONS:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Financial markets provide the following three major economic functions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"777\" height=\"301\" src=\"https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-1.png\" alt=\"FINANCIAL MARKET NOTES PDF\" class=\"wp-image-6220\" srcset=\"https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-1.png 777w, https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-1-300x116.png 300w, https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-1-768x298.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 777px) 100vw, 777px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Economic functions<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>(a) Price discovery:<\/strong> The forces of demand and supply help to establish a price for a commodity or service in the market. In financial markets, interaction between buyers and sellers of financial instruments determine the price of a traded product. At the same time the required return from the investment of funds is determined by the participants in a financial market. The inducement for firms to acquire funds depends on the required rate of return that investors demand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is these functions of financial markets that signal how the funds available from those who want to lend or invest funds will be allocated among those needing funds and raise those funds by issuing financial instruments. This is called price discovered process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>(b) Provide liquidity to financial assets:<\/strong> An attractive feature where circumstances either force or motivate an investor to sell is that financial markets provide a mechanism for an investor to sell a financial asset. In doing so, they provide liquidity to financial asset. Without liquidity, the owner will be forced to hold a debt instrument till it matures and an equity instrument till the company is either voluntarily or otherwise liquidated. While all financial markets provide some form of liquidity, the degree of liquidity is one of the factors that characterise different financial markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>(c) Reduce the cost of transactions:<\/strong> One of the other important functions of financial market is that it reduces the search and information costs of transacting by providing valuable information about securities to the investors being traded in the market. It helps to save time, effort and money that both buyers and sellers of a financial asset would have to otherwise spend to try and find out each other.

In a widest sense, it is the mechanism which makes the long term finance available for industrial and commercial enterprises and public authorities. It is concerned with those private savings of individuals as well as corporate, that are turned into investments through new capital issues and also new public loans leading to growth and development of the economy. The capital market consists of development banks, commercial banks and stock exchanges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to V.K. Bhalla, &#8220;Capital market can be defined as the mechanism which channelises saving into investment or productive use. Capital market allocates the capital resources amongst alternative uses. It intermediates flow of savings of those who save a part of their income from those who want to invest it in productive assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An ideal capital market is one where finance is available at reasonable cost.

They are one of the most vital area of market economy which provide financing through the issuance of shares or common stock and enable the subsequent trading thereof. This market can be split into two main sub markets:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(i) Primary market where new issue are first offered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(ii) Secondary market where subsequent trading is done. An example of a secondary equity market for shares is the Bombay stock exchange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>(b) Bond\/Debt Market: <\/strong>The market where funds are borrowed and lent is known as debt market. Arrangements are made in such a way that the borrowers agree to pay the lender the original amount of the loan plus some specified amount of interest. Bonds are used by companies to finance a variety of projects and activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><strong>Money Market:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The money market is the place or mechanism where short term instruments that matures in a year are traded. Generally, money market is the source of finance for working capital. It enables the raising of short term funds for meeting the temporary shortages of cash and obligations and the temporary deployment of excess funds for earning returns. Thus, the money market brings together the lenders who have short term investible funds and the borrowers who are in need of short term funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the McGeraw Hill Directory of Modern Economics, &#8220;Money market is the term designed to include the financial institutions which handle the purchase, sale and transfer of short term credit instruments. The money market includes the entire machinery for the channelizing of short term funds. Concerned primarily with small business needs for working capital, individual&#8217;s borrowings and government short-term obligations, it differs from the long term or capital market which devotes its attention to dealings in bonds, corporate stocks and mortgage credit.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, money market is a market where low risk, unsecured and short term debt instruments that are highly liquid are issued and actively traded everyday. It has no physical location. Negotiation between the parties may be carried through telephone, telegraph or mail. The major participants in the money market are Reserve Bank of India (RBI), Commercial Banks, Non-Banking finance companies, State Governments, Large corporate houses, mutual funds etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In nutshell, money market is simply an arrangement that brings about a direct or indirect contact between the lender and the borrower and ensures that the money market instruments can be conveniently converted into money without incurring much losses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><strong>Commodity Market:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Commodity market are markets where raw or primary products are exchanged.

Thus, commodity market are institutions where investors trade, sell and buy shares of raw materials that are used in the manufacture of other goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Commodities are typically sold as future contracts, meaning the investor is buying commodities that have yet to be produced. These are agreement to buy or sell at an agreed price on a specific date. Commodities market are commonly used by the investors as a hedge against inflation. But commodity market has disadvantages also:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(i) Commodities can lose value when inflation is low or negative, because inflation is a measure of prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(ii) Commodity market has historically been as volatile as the equity market and entails risk for the investor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(iii) During economic downturns, consumer spending can reduce demand for all goods, including those made from commodities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In nutshell, open and organized market place where ownership titles to standardized quantities or volumes of certain commodities at a specified price and to be delivered on a specified date are trade by its members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><strong>Derivative Market:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Derivative markets is market where exchange of derivative take place.

In order to minimise the risk, they always insist on some guarantee by the third person so that in case, the principal debtors make a default in the repayment of loans, the guarantor becomes the debtor i.e. the guarantor becomes liable for repayment of loan capital. Debtors, in some cases raise loans against the security of tangible assets from the creditors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But still creditors demand additional security in the form of a guarantee because full amount due in respect of a loan may not be recovered from the security. The guarantor can be renowned person or special state guarantee organisation. Guarantee can be oral or written but mostly creditors insist on written guarantee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Types Of Guarantees<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Various types of guarantees that exist in financial markets are explained below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"908\" height=\"239\" src=\"https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-7.png\" alt=\"FINANCIAL MARKET NOTES PDF\" class=\"wp-image-6226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-7.png 908w, https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-7-300x79.png 300w, https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-7-768x202.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 908px) 100vw, 908px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Types  of guarantees in financial markets<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Secured guarantees:<\/strong> Such type of guarantees are backed by tangible assets from the guarantor. When both the principal debtor as well as the guarantor fail to repay the loan amount the creditors will have right to charge such security.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Specific guarantees:<\/strong> It refers to the guarantee given for a particular single loan transaction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Continuing guarantees:<\/strong> When the guarantee is given for a number of transactions in a particular period.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Explicit guarantee:<\/strong> The agreement clearly states the liability of the guarantor fin case of non-payment of amount due by the principal debtor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Implicit guarantee:<\/strong> Where the liability of the guarantor to pay is implied in case of default by the principal debtor. For example. A person endorsing the bill or a promissory note is liable as a guarantor to pay to the holders in respect of the debt represented by the instrument.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size\"><strong>Government Securities Market<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Government securities are the instruments issued by central government, state governments, semi-government bodies, public sector corporations and financial institutions such as IDBI, IFCI, State Financial Corporations (SFCs) etc. in the form of marketable debt. Government securities form an important part of the stock market in India. Today, funds mobilised through the issue of government securities account for more than 80% of the total amount of funds mobilised on the stock exchanges of India through the issue of all securities (including government and corporate). Funds mobilised are used to meet the short-term and long-term needs of the government. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Central government securities are considered to be the safest amongst all type of securities as regard to the payment of interest and repayment of principal amount. They are also called gilt-edged securities. They are free of default-risk or credit risk. They are considered to be more liquid assets and ensure certainty of capital value not only at maturity but also before maturity. Since the date of maturity is mentioned in the securities, these are also known as dated government securities<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Features of Government Securities Market<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The main features of the government securities market in India are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(1) The government securities are the marketable debt instruments issued by central and state governments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(2) Government securities occupy an important place in the financial market. Reserve Bank of India purchases and sells these securities in the open market in order to exercise monetary control in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(3) Government securities carry a fixed rate of interest which is payable half-yearly. The rate of interest on government securities is generally lower as compared to the other securities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(4) The face value of these securities is either 100 or 1000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(5) Government securities are safest as regards the payment of interest and the repayment of principal amount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(6) Interest on government securities is exempted from income-tax subject to the provisions of section 80-L of the Income-Tax Act, 1961. However, interest on securities of local authorities is not exempted from tax.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(7) Government-securities can be issued either in the form of stock certificate (SC), promissory note (PN) or hearer bond. But, out of these, promissory note is most common.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(8) Government securities are issued through Public Debt Office (PDO) of the RBL There are no listing requirements for them for listing on stock exchange. There is no need to issue prospectus. However, &#8216;no objection&#8217; certificate is to be obtained from SEBI for primary issues which is generally granted in routine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(9) The government securities market is an over-the counter market where there is one- to-one correspondence between the buyer and the seller without using the services of brokers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(10) Institutional investors are the main participants in the government securities market. But since December, 2001, the RBI allowed individuals also to buy government securities in a non-competitive environment. The minimum amount for bidding has been fixed at 10,000, and in multiples of 10,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(11) Brokers and dealers play very limited role in marketing of government securities because banks can approach RBI directly for these securities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"MAJOR_PLAYERS_IN_FINANCIAL_MARKET\"><\/span><strong>MAJOR PLAYERS IN FINANCIAL MARKET<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The major players or main participants in the financial market are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"923\" height=\"346\" src=\"https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-8.png\" alt=\"FINANCIAL MARKET NOTES PDF\" class=\"wp-image-6227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-8.png 923w, https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-8-300x112.png 300w, https:\/\/commerceiets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-8-768x288.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 923px) 100vw, 923px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Major players in financial markets<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1.
