RBA Glossary definition for financial markets
financial markets – A generic term for the markets in which financial instruments are traded. Financial instruments have no intrinsic value of themselves. They represent a claim over real assets or a future income stream. The four main financial markets are the foreign exchange market, the fixed interest or bond market, the share or equity market and the derivatives market.
