Secondary market intermediaries for corporate securities in India are I. Investors II. Jobbers III. Brokers and sub-brokers IV. Portfolio consultants Codes :
II, III and IV only
Secondary market intermediaries stand between buyers and sellers of already issued securities and help trades take place. In India they are registered with SEBI and the stock exchanges.
II. Jobbers (taraniwalas on the BSE) dealt in securities on their own account, quoting buying and selling prices and providing liquidity, so they are intermediaries.
III. Brokers and sub-brokers execute buy and sell orders on the exchange for clients, so they are the main intermediaries.
IV. Portfolio consultants or managers, registered under the SEBI (Portfolio Managers) Regulations, 1993, advise on or manage investors' portfolios in the market, so they are intermediaries.
I. Investors are the ultimate buyers and sellers of securities, the parties whom intermediaries serve, so they are not intermediaries.
The intermediaries are therefore II, III and IV only.
Hence, II, III and IV only.
