Capital Markets

Capital markets channel more investment towards private businesses, helping to fuel economic development and create jobs.

Capital markets are essential for economic growth, facilitating the flow of financing from investors to borrowers. They help stabilize economies by managing volatile capital flows, allocating resources efficiently, and funding higher-risk projects beyond the scope of banks. For investors, they offer profitable opportunities in emerging markets, allow private businesses to access local currency financing, and enhance transparency.
