Regulated capital markets are financial marketplaces where long-term funds are raised and traded under governmental oversight. These markets, including stock exchanges and bond markets, operate under strict rules enforced by regulatory bodies to ensure fairness, transparency, and investor protection. They facilitate capital formation for businesses and governments, providing platforms for trading various securities. Compliance with these regulations is essential for market integrity and stability.
