The central role of the financial market
The modern economy is based on the activity and development of companies and therefore on people, projects and capital. Companies find most of their capital needs from investors.
In the context of a decentralized, open and free economy, this meeting between the financing needs of companies and the money available is organized within the financial market.
This financial market, or capital market, is what makes it possible to organize the relations, today on a planetary scale, between all the major economic projects and all the investors. Companies find the capital they need to finance their projects in this market.
