2. Secondary Market exclusively deals with the issue of new securities.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?Correct
Statement 1 is correct while statement 2 is incorrect.
Capital market deals in financial instruments and commodities that are long-term securities. They have a maturity of at least more than one year. The most important type of capital market is the primary market. It is what we call the new issue market. It exclusively deals with the issue of new securities, i.e. securities that are issued to investors for the very first time.
After the primary market is the secondary capital market. This is more commonly known as the stock market or the stock exchange. Here the securities (shares, debentures, bonds, bills etc) are bought and sold by the investors. The main point of difference between the primary and the secondary market is that in the primary market only new securities were issued, whereas in the secondary market the trading is for already existing securities. There is no fresh issue in the secondary market.Incorrect
