Finance, financial institutions and services play a big and important role in our lives. They are vital to government, businesses and retail consumers. It's very important to have a stable financial system for government of every country. An economy's financial system exists to organize the settlement of payments, to raise and allocate financial resources, and to manage the risks associated with financing and hedging of business transactions. Businesses use financial system and services provided by banks and other financial institutions in order to operate efficiently. Efficient financial markets enable businesses to collect financial resources via debt or equity offering to invest in projects that would continue expansion of the business. Investors enhance their wealth and economic well-being while enhancing productivity and consumer basket quality for the people employed by the business. What pays under capitalism is satisfying the common man, the customer. The more people you satisfy, the better for you. - Ludwig Von Mises
