Roles of Financial Markets
Assignment: Define the Roles of Financial Markets and Institutions
For this assignment you will focus on the roles of financial markets and institutions. You will identify the roles played by the financial markets, institutions, and regulators and the impact they have on an efficient financial market. You will also explore interest rates, which are the cost of capital in the market. This knowledge will prepare you for any position in the business world.
Assignment
You can rely on the content of Chapters 1 and 2 to complete this assignment but you should also conduct research and include additional reliable sources. Be sure to discuss the following topics in your paper:
Discuss the types of financial institutions involved in the financial market and the markets they serve. Be sure to distinguish between the primary and secondary markets and the money and capital markets.
Discuss what it means when it is said that markets are “efficient” and include an explanation of whether this seems true today.
Discuss the role of regulators in the financial market. Your discussion should include information about the importance of accounting as a key to the success of those regulators.
Many factors impact interest rates in the financial market and those rates drive the operations of the institutions. The price of money is interest rates; the financial markets determine that price in a very traditional economic sense of demand and supply of money. With this in mind, discuss the impact of a recession, the impact of the money supply, and the impact of international rates.
Briefly discuss the concepts of Nominal Rate of Interest and Real Interest Rates. Include an example of both.
