2. INTRODUCTION
Capital markets are financial markets that bring buyers and sellers
together to trade stocks, bonds, currencies, and other financial
assets. Capital markets include the stock market and the bond
market. They help people with ideas become entrepreneurs and
help small businesses grow into big companies.

3. Structure of Capital Markets
primary market and secondary market
primary market
The primary market refers to the market where securities are created and first issued.
The primary market is the part of the capital market that deals with the issuance and sale
of securities to purchasers directly by the issuer, with the issuer being paid the proceeds. A primary
market means the market for new issues of securities, as distinguished from the secondary market,
where previously issued securities are bought and sold. A market is primary if the proceeds of sales go
to the issuer of the securities sold. Buyers buy securities that were not previously traded.

4. Secondary market
The secondary market, also called the aftermarket and follow on
public offering, is the financial market in which previously
issued financial instruments such as stock, bonds, options,
and futures are bought and sold. The initial sale of the security by
the issuer to a purchaser, who pays proceeds to the issuer, is
the primary market. All sales after the initial sale of the security are
sales in the secondary market.
