The financial system in India has seen significant changes since independence, facilitating faster economic development. The system links savers and investors through various financial institutions and markets. It provides necessary financial inputs for production through intermediation of funds. The major components of the financial system are banking institutions, non-banking financial institutions, financial markets, and financial instruments. Financial markets include money markets for short-term funds and capital markets for long-term funds. Money markets deal in short-term debt instruments like treasury bills, commercial paper, certificates of deposit, and promissory notes. Capital markets facilitate resource mobilization through primary and secondary markets.
