What does ‘instruments’ mean? Are they consider an investment or borrowing (or both maybe)?
How many kinds of instruments are there that we study in ACCA?
Good day!
In finance, instruments refer to various financial assets or securities that can be traded or held by individuals or institutions.
These instruments can include stocks, bonds, derivatives, money market instruments, and other types of financial contracts. They serve as a means for investors to participate in the financial markets and manage their investment portfolios.
The specific characteristics and features of each instrument may vary, and they can be used for different purposes such as hedging, speculation, or investment. It is important to have a good understanding of these instruments to make informed investment decisions and navigate the financial markets effectively.
