Capital market - what it is and how it works

The capital market is the segment of the financial system responsible for the intermediation of negotiations between fund-raisers to finance projects and investors.

It is regulated by the CVM and is growing more every day due to the increase in investors in securities and the growing number of companies that carry out initial offers of shares (IPO) on the stock exchange.

The capital market includes variable income assets, such as Stocks, Commodities (soybeans, oil, aluminum, coffee, etc.).

Another important aspect is how the Capital Market is divided. There is a primary market where assets are traded between bond issuers and investors. And this is where the initial offerings of shares of companies on the exchange, also known as IPOs, take place. On the other hand, in the secondary market, assets are traded between investors and the issuing company does not participate.

With regard to Capital Market participants, it is important to remember that the financial market is part of the National Financial System (SFN), of which the Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM), which is the government agency responsible for supervising this market, is part of. An important agent of this market are the Stock Exchanges, where the securities that companies and financial institutions place on the market are traded. In addition to these bodies, companies, responsible for issuing securities that will be traded and for the purchase and sale of assets, banks and financial institutions that carry out financial intermediation, making operations feasible, and brokerage firms, responsible for intermediating between investors and the stock exchange, participate.

To invest, a few steps are recommended: find out what your investor profile is, define the amount you are going to invest, open an account with a brokerage firm and carry out the operations.

Something that deserves attention is to remember that brokerage firms are the bridge between the investor and the capital market. For this reason, it is important to seek institutions that are responsible and serious with their clients. The capital market offers good earning opportunities, but you need to know it well and plan your actions carefully. Seeking expert help is important for successful investments.
