12. Section: 1.2 The Financial System
Learning Objective: 1.3
Level of difficulty: Intermediate
CPA: Finance
Solution:
In the financial system, there are four major sectors: households, government, business, and non-
residents. Within the field of finance, there are four major areas: personal finance, government
finance, corporate finance, and international finance. They closely interrelate to each other.
Because they are all major parts of the whole financial system, what happens in one market will
affect all the other markets.

Solution:
Banks take in deposits and loan them out to fund borrowers. Pension funds take in pension
contributions and pay out pensions to plan participants when they retire. Insurance firms take in
premiums and pay out when a certain event occurs. Mutual funds pool small funds together and
make large investments that small investors cannot make. Mutual funds also offer investment
expertise to ordinary investors.

Solution:
Five main reasons why financial and market intermediaries exist are:
i) They provide anonymousness and convenience to all transaction parties.
ii) They efficiently match the needs of the participants in the financial market and aggregate all
the small transactions.
iii) They have procedures for documentation of legal contracts to ensure security.
iv) The risk of non-payment is alleviated by maintaining credit ratings and by controlling other
accounts.
v) Financial institutions transform the nature of the underlying financial securities.

15. Section: 1.4 Financial Instruments and Markets
Learning Objective: 1.4
Level of difficulty: Intermediate
CPA: Finance
CPA: Finance
Solution:
The two major types of secondary markets are exchanges or auction markets, and dealer or over-
the-counter (OTC) markets. Exchanges have been referred to as auction markets because they
involve a bidding process that takes place in a specific location (i.e., similar to an auction). OTC
or dealer markets do not have a physical location, but rather consist of a network of dealers who
trade directly with one another.

Challenging
16. Section: 1.4 Financial Instruments and Markets
Learning Objective: 1.4
Level of difficulty: Challenging
CPA: Finance
Solution:
Secondary market transactions are those where ownership of existing shares changes hands, but
the corporations or governments who originally issued the securities receive no financing;
trading takes place between investors. This is critical to the functioning of the primary markets,
because governments and companies would not be able to raise financing if investors were
unable to sell their investments if necessary.
