Role of the capital market Now what does the capital market offers to investors like you? I would like to think a lot more than you may have thought of. Let us examine this in detail. Like all things in life there are two sides to the market – you have a seller and a buyer.
On one side, we have a buyer and in this case one who has a project and is looking for money. We normally call this person or company the issuer. On the other side, we have the seller who is selling money. We call this person the investor. What the capital market does is to bring the two sides together.
