The financial activities
The modern market economy is
populated by three types of economic agents, whose interaction constitutes
economic activity. There are budgeting, financing, investment, banking,
taxation and insurance are the main forms of financial activity.
Financial assets flow in the system
from savers, which act as sources of funds, to borrowers, who use them. Savers
and borrowers are linked by financial intermediaries. They are banks, finance,
investment and insurance companies. And the ministry of finance, the treasury,
the central bank, the tax service and other governmental organizations also
carry out and regulate financial activities.
There are stock and currency
exchanges, commercial banks, producers, finance, investment, insurance companies,
and special financial-credit institutions such as investment founds, pawnshops,
trust companies - all of these types of economic agencies carry out the
financial activity, which is a backbone of any financial system.
