The stock market is a system of markets where transactions such as stocks, government bonds, commodities, foreign exchange, and forward account transactions are made, offered to the public, and buying and selling transactions are carried out easily and safely. The stock market can also be defined as a physical or virtual platform that allows buying and selling within the framework of certain rules under state control. The name of the stock exchange organization in Turkey is Borsa Istanbul.
How Does the Stock Exchange Work?
The stock market system works through the interaction between authorized stock exchange brokerage firms and state-authorized supervisory and regulatory institutions. Buyers and sellers start trading on the stock exchange through an institution that is authorized and has sufficient infrastructure. The buyer or seller places an order, the order consists of one purchase and one sale, and they must match at a price. The value of the invested financial asset increases and vice versa, that is, if the financial asset starts to be sold, its value decreases. So everything depends on the supply and demand relationship. For clarity, it is possible to list the above institutions as follows:
Buyer: Real persons or legal entities who want to purchase financial assets,
Seller: Real or legal persons who want to dispose of or sell their financial investments,
Intermediary institution: Institutions that provide adequate infrastructure to real or legal persons who want to invest,
Regulatory Authority: The authority that ensures trust between buyers and sellers, institutions authorized by the state.
