Determining the price:- The determination of fair price of securities is facilitated by financial markets as it provides a place where buyers can meet sellers and undertake different transactions of securities. Such a commonplace ensures trading at a fair and justifiable price of the security which is determined by the opposite forces of demand and supply.
