roles of SC and BNM in developing the capital market
Securities Commission (SC) has been focusing their effort in developing confidence and trust in the Malaysia’s capital market all these years. Based on the Capital Market Masterplan 2, Securities Commission has introduced a strategic blueprint to develop the capital market over the next 10 years. The strategies introduced, are to unleash the competitive dynamics that will enable our markets to utilize the domestic savings more effectively for capital formation. The strategies include increasing the capacity and efficiency of the capital market in financing investment requirements for economic growth, addressing efficiency of savings intermediation, deepening secondary market liquidity, facilitating scale-driven strategies, identifying new growth opportunities as well as building capacity and strengthening information infrastructure to support the transition to an electronic environment.

Another is tax. (high tax-bracket investors would, other things equal, would prefer tax-exempt securities [municipal bonds]). brokered markets (when a bank seeks out investors to purchase an issue directly from the issuing firm, it is acting as a broker) and dealer markets (when an inv. bank purchased and sold a security issue, it is acting as a dealer – profit is the bid-ask spread [ask price is investors’ purchase price & bid price is investors’ sale price, with ask price greater than the bid price]). Both broker and dealer markets require a financial intermediary. auction market is a more advanced market in which all buyers and sellers arrive at mutually agreeable prices (popularity of internet auction market). primary markets (where a security is first sold to investors [IPOs, initial public offerings]) and secondary markets (where existing securities are traded among investors [New York Stock Exchange]). trends: 1)globalization (euro); 2) securitization (CMOs); 3) financial engineering (creation of new securities); 4) faster & more easily accessible information.…

Investors usually do not have enough information or expertise to determine the good investments from the bad ones.

Other institutions like regulatory or lawyers are entities to ensure that the parties play by the rule and also to build and develop a framework of rules.…
