Money may not (except metaphorically) make the world go round, but it certainly goes round the world. Recent years have seen the global growth of sophisticated financial markets. These markets, and the institutions associated with them, bring people together; agents (such as investors) with surplus cash looking to generate returns deliver it to those who would like it now (such as borrowers). There are many ways of achieving this, as we will find out in this tutorial.

This tutorial introduces the major financial markets. Who needs them? What products do they offer? Where are they? How do they operate? How are they changing? Broadly speaking, it examines the people involved (such as investors or borrowers), the products offered (such as bonds or shares) and where, either physically or virtually, markets for the products exist.
