Course: The basics of capital markets
Lesson Insights
The stock exchange is a market place where stocks (also known as equities or shares) of publicly traded companies are bought and sold. Stock exchanges provide a platform for the trading of securities, enabling investors to buy and sell ownership stakes in companies. Companies that are listed on the stock exchange have their shares traded publicly, making it possible for investors to buy and sell shares in these companies. Stock exchanges provide investors with the opportunity to buy and sell securities in a regulated and organized marketplace, which helps to ensure the integrity of the trading process and provides a level of transparency and fairness.
