WORK CULTURE
In order to invest in the stock market, he needs to use the services provided
through a brokerage firm. Brokerage firms are financial institutions that help
you buy and sell securities. They act as the middle man between the buyer and
the seller.
Your role in a stockbroker job is to manage the financial portfolio of your
client; so, this could be an individual or a company. On the advice
of investment analysts, you'll discuss with your client which shares to buy or
sell to get them the best return on their money.
Stock exchanges make sure your transactions are safe and secure
and brokers follow the rules while trading. The function of stock exchanges
is to ensure brokers have enough capital (money) to enable them to conduct
their business satisfactorily.
The Important Role ofBrokers. ... Real estate brokers help sellers market their
property and sell it for the highest possible price; they also help buyers
4. 4
purchase property for the best possible price. Once the broker successfully
finds a buyer, the real estate broker receives a commission for his or her
service.
One of the major pros of being a stockbroker is the potential for good pay.
You can earn a very high base salary if you stick with the job and are
successfulover time. Your pay can be enhanced by commissions and bonuses
as well. Successfulstockbrokers can become very wealthy over the course of
a career.
TYPES OF ORGANIZATION
1. Line Organization:
Line organization is the simplest and oldest form of organization structure. It
is called as military or departmental or scalar type of organization. Under this
system, authority flows directly and vertically from the top of the managerial
hierarchy ‘down to different levels of managers and subordinates and down
to the operative level of workers.
Line organization clearly identifies authority, responsibility and
accountability at each level. The personnel in Line organization are directly
involved in achieving the objectives of the organization.
2. Line and Staff Organization
This type of organization structure is in large enterprises. The functional
specialists are added to the line in line and staff organization. Mere, staff is
5. 5
basically advisory in nature and usually does not possess any command
authority over line managers. Allen has defined line and staff organization as
follows.
“Line functions are those which have direct responsibility for accomplishing
the objectives of the enterprises and staff refers to those elements of the
organization that help the line to work most effectively in accomplishing the
primary objectives of the enterprises.”
3. Project Organization
This organizational structure is temporarily formed for specific projects for a
specific period of time, for the project of achieving the goal of developing
new product, the specialists from different functional departments such as
production, engineering, quality control, marketing research etc., will be
drawn to work together. These specialists go back to their respective duties as
soon as the project is completed.
Really, the project organization is set-up with the object of overcoming the
major weakness of the functional organization, such as absence of unity of
command, delay in decision-making, and lack of coordination.
4. Matrix Organization
According to Stanley Davis and Paul Lawrence matrix organization is “any
organization that employs a multiple command system that includes not only
6. 6
the multiple command structure, but also related support mechanism and an
associated organizational culture and behavior pattern.”
A matrix organization, also referred to as the “multiple command system” has
two chains of command. One chain of command is functional in which the
flow of authority is vertical.
The second chain is horizontal depicted by a project team, which is led by the
project, or group manager who is an expert in his team’s assigned area of
specialization.
Since the matrix structure integrates the efforts of functional and project
authority, the vertical and horizontal lines of authority are combination of the
authority flows both down and across. The matrix form of organization is
given below.
ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE
Brokerage House
When you work at a brokerage house, you work under a sales manager or
team leader. There's normally a two-tiered layer of management--your direct
supervisor or sales manager and his boss, who oversees several managers.
These managers have a district manager who covers a large area, and there's
sometimes a regional manager who oversees them and reports to the head of
the company. Your job in a brick-and-mortar brokerage firm is to deal directly
with clients and build a large client base with high amounts of assets.
7. 7
Financial Institutions
Stockbrokers for banks and other financial institutions have a double set of
managers and rules to follow. They work under the bank's auspices and ruling
body, and also the brokerage firm and SEC rules. The structure is similar to
that of the brokerage house, but the brokerage considers the bank its biggest
and only client. Your job is to make the branches money through sales of
financial products. The commission level is lower than at a traditional
brokerage firm, but you have access to the bank's client base. While the bank's
management doesn't have direct control over you, their input is highly
important and can make or break a broker.
Wealth Management
Normally, stockbrokers who provide wealth-management services work
either under the auspices of a bank or large firm. Unlike traditional brokers
who simply recommend products but must follow the client's requests, these
individuals often make the decisions for the clients and execute the trades.
Depending on where the wealth manager works, the structure is customarily
varied. If they work for the wealth-management ortrust department of a bank,
they answer directly to supervisors for that department, and ultimately to the
upper management of the bank.
8. 8
Independent
If you don't like a lot of management and want the highest possible
commissions, openyour own stock-brokeragehouse. Youcan use the services
of several broker dealers simply by applying to have them hold your license
and use their services. If you fit their requirements, most of the time, the only
thing they ask is a minimum amount of production, competency and
adherence to the law. You'll receive the highest compensation at these places,
but you must pay all your own expenses.
Financial Planner
Financial planners charge for the service of helping clients lay out a plan for
their future and accomplish it. Someaccepta fee and don'tdo any ofthe trades
recommended; others don't charge for the plan, but earn their money on the
trades; and the third type makes recommendations for a fee and are also paid
when they trade. There are two types of financial planners: those who work
for a firm (often opened by a single person or partners) and those who work
for themselves. The organizational structure normally entails one supervisor
or is similar to an independent.
Online
Stockbrokers work for online companies. They often have little contact with
people, except for those who work in the customer service area, and then the
contact is simply by phone. These types of companies are often very large,
and there are several layers of management in the hierarchy.
9. 9
Stockbrokers as Principals
This type of broker doesn't deal with the public, but purchases stocks for a
company's benefit. He purchases stock for resale to clients, in hopes that the
price increases when the clients buy it. These brokers make multimillion-
dollar decisions for their companies. As with any large company, there's
normally a supervisor who answers to another. Another name for such a
broker is a stock trader.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1. To study the capital markets and its functions.
2. To study about the share broking institutions.
3. To study the services provided by stock broking
4. To understand the factors influencing trading investing in equity market.
To Study the Capital Markets and Its Functions
Capital market is an organized market mechanism for effective and efficient
transfer of money capital or financial resources from the investing class to the
entrepreneur class in the private and public sectors of the economy.
H. T. Parikh states, ‘By capital market I mean the market for all financial
instruments, short-term and long-term as also commercial, industrial and
government papers ‘Capital market is generally understood as the market for
long-term funds. The capital market provides long-term debt and equity
finance for the government and corporate sector.
Functions of Capital Market
The functions of financial market which comprise capital and money market
involve the exchange of one financial assetfor another e.g., surplus economic
units exchange money into another financial asset that provides future return
in the form of interest, dividend and capital appreciation. They bring savers
and borrowers together by selling securities to savers and lending that money
to the borrowers.
18. 18
The efficiency of finance market depends upon how efficiently the flow of
funds is managed in an economy. As Prof. Schumpeter in his book, “The
Theory of Economic Development”, has put it, ‘without the transfer of
purchasing power to him an entrepreneur cannot become an entrepreneur’.
It is equally important that financial market should induce people to become
entrepreneurs and motivate individuals and institutions to save more.
Capital and money markets are the means for allocating the savings in the
most desirable way so that we can achieve the desired national objectives and
priorities. This facilitates in the efficient production of goods and services;
thus, it contributes to the society’s wellbeing and raises the standard of living
of not only of borrowers but also of others in the economy.
Financial markets perform this function by transmitting the nation’s savings
into best possible productive uses which in turn raises the output and
employment level in a country.
The proper development and growth of finance markets play a vital role for
the fast growth of the economy. Formeeting the growing financial needs of a
developing economy, financial ark should also grow at a faster rate.
Moreover, it should be efficient and more diversified. Van Home in r book,
Financial Management and Policy has rightly said. The more varied the
vehicle by which savings can flow from ultimate savers to ultimate users of
funds’ the most efficient the financial markets of an economy tend to be.
Financial markets satisfy the needs of both savers and borrowers. In financial
markets, there are different financial instruments which are bought and sold
19. 19
daily. These instruments differ in liquidity, marketability, maturity, risk,
return, tax concisions etc. Investors differ in their attitudes towards risk, return
and liquidity.
Moreover, investors want to have a more diversified investment portfolio.
Hence the greater the diversification in financial instruments in a financial
market, the greater will be the efficiency in generating and transferring the
savings into investment.
The financial markets not only help in transfer of savings in new industry but
also provide opportunities for financial investment so as to earn income on
surplus. In other words, thesemarkets performbothfinancial and nonfinancial
functions.
The financial markets enable financing of not only physical capital formation
but also of consumption expenditure. That is why financial markets manage
the flow of funds not only between individual savers and investors but also
between institutional savers and investors.
The demand for long-term funds comes from individuals, institutions, central
govt., state govt., local self-govt. and private corporate sector. Funds are
raised through issue of shares, debentures and bonds which constitute the new
issue market.
Apart from raising funds directly from savers the deficit units obtain long-
term funds from public financial institutions and investment institutions also.
The supply of funds mainly comes from individuals, institutions, banks and
industrial financial institutions.
20. 20
The capital market plays a significant role in the financial system. Savings
and investments are vital for economic development of an economy.
Generally, units which save and invest are different; capital market provides
a bridge by which savings of surplus units are transmitted into long-term
investments by deficit units.
The pace of economic development along with other things depends uponthe
rate of long-term investments and capital formation in a country. The rate of
capital formation depends upon the rate of savings, rate of investment and
financial markets.
The capital market plays a vital role in mobilizing the savings and making
them available to the enterprising investors. The primary capital market helps
Govt. and industrial concerns in raising funds by issuing various kinds of
securities. The secondary market provides liquidity to the outstanding
securities.
An active capital market through its price mechanism allocates the scarce
financial resources to the most productive uses at a low cost. The system of
allocation of funds works through incentives and penalties.
Usually the cost of capital is comparatively low for the large and efficient
companies as their securities are subject to lesser risks. Shares of high growth
companies command a premium in the market while the poor performance
companies face problems in selling their securities and may have to issue
securities at a discountto raise additional funds. The specified shares are more
attractive than non-specified shares.
21. 21

To understand the factors influencing trading investing in
equity market.
Economic growth. Higher economic growth or better prospectsforgrowth
will help firms be more profitable because there will be more demand for
goods and services. This will help boostcompanydividends and therefore
share prices.
Interest rates. Lower interest rates can make shares more attractive for two
reasons. Lower interest rates help boost economic growth making firms
more profitable. Also, lower interest rates make shares relatively more
attractive than saving money in a bank or holding bonds. If bond yields
fall, it may encourage investors to switch into shares which give a
relatively better dividend.
Stability. Stock markets dislike shocks that could threaten economic
stability and future growth. Therefore, they will tend to fall on news of
terrorist attacks orspikes in the price of oil. They will also dislike political
instability which may make it difficult to pursue strong economic policies.
Confidence and expectations. A key factor is the mood ofinvestors. If they
receive economic news that gives optimism then they are more likely to
buy shares. If they receive bad news they will sell. This is why in the depth
of a recession; stock markets can start to rise. Investors are always trying
to predict the future. Therefore, if they feel the worst is over – the stock
market can rally – even when economic fundamentals remain poor.
