Short- term funds can also be borrowed from various agencies. Thus business units can raise capital from issue of securities or by borrowings (long-term and short-term).The borrowers and lenders are brought together through the financial markets. The term „financial market‟ collectively refers to all those organizations and institutions which lend funds to business enterprises and public authorities. It is composed of two constituents. (i) The money market, (ii) The capital market.

Madoff'60 The same year as his graduation from Hofstra, Bernard L. Madoff, Class of 1960, founded a successful investment firm that bears his name. Madoff Securities currently ranks among the top 1 percent of U.S. securities firms and is the third largest firm matching buyers and sellers of New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq securities. While building his firm into a significant force in the securities industry, Bernard and his family have been deeply involved in leading the dramatic transformation that is currently underway in U.Si securities trading. Bernard has been a major figure in the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), the major self-regulato~y organization for U.S. broker/dealer fums. He is credited with being one of the five broker/dealers most closely involved in developing the Nasdaq Stock Market. He has served as chairman of the board of directors of the Nasdaq Stock Market as well as a member of the board of governors of the NASD and a member of numerous NASD committees. Bernard has also served as a member of the board of directors of the Securities Industry Association. In 1983 Madoff Securities opened a London office, which quickly became one of the first U.S. members of the London Stock Exchange. Bernard was also a founding member of the board of directors of the International Securities Clearing Corporation in London.

Market Information A company discovers that land it owns contains substantial mineral deposits which can be commercially exploited. Officers and directors of the company who are aware of this discovery purchase the company's stock in the market before the information is made public.

The Honorable Manuel F. Cohen 'Chairman Securities and Exchange Commission 500 North Capitol Street Washington, D. C. 20549 July 27, 1967 Dear Mr. Cohen: This is in response to your letter of July 7, 1967 in which you instruct all stock exchanges to consider the question of give-ups and related commission rate structure problems "on a priority basis". In August 1966, I wrote to Mr. Irving M. Pollack, Director of your Division of Trading and Markets, in response to the initial direction that steps be taken in this connection. My letter to Mr. Pollack made it plain that the Detroit Stock Exchange was strenuously opposed . to .the proposals for elimin- ation of give-ups and related alteration of the stock exchange commission rate structure. Our opposition is based on our belief that such proposals, if effectuated, will not prove to be in the general public interest; that their adoption could terminate the existence of this and other regional stock exchanges, that they would ,seriously impair the ability of smaller broker- dealers to continue to exist; that an inevitable result of such changes would be to accelerate the unfortunate trend toward concentration of the securities business in a few major firms in New York City; and that the depth and liquid- ity of the markets would thereby be endangered or impaired.
