Secondary market clarity refers to the degree of transparency and regulatory certainty surrounding the trading of assets after their initial issuance. This involves clear rules and guidelines for how assets can be bought, sold, and transferred among investors. It helps reduce ambiguity and fosters confidence among market participants. Greater clarity generally leads to increased liquidity and broader participation in asset markets.
