Capital market, stock exchange and stakeholders’ challenge

Capital market as part of the financial architecture of an economy remain a major platform for raising funds for development. This is not just for industrial sector development but also for other sectors of the economy, namely: primary, tertiary, quarternary and quinary sectors.

However, the capital market accommodates all businesses that want to participate in its activities. Another confusing categorisation is equating the capital market with the stock market. Technically, all sources of medium to long term funds belong to the capital market, implying that stock market is a subset of the capital market and that is our concern here. It is the market that deals with issues relating to shares and dividends of companies that are listed on its platform.

However, the global financial crisis of 2008/2009 exposed the dangers inherent in the stock market. Sometimes, the fund in the stock market is referred to as hot money. This is because individuals invest their funds in order to increase their capital gains within a short term and the returns fluctuate widely or unpredictably in reaction to market forces.
