The globalization of financial markets, a phenomenon characteristic of the late twentieth century, has led to the separation of the financial economy from the real economy. The phenomenon of globalization did not occur suddenly. A series of steps were required, which, in turn, led to what we now call behavioral financial and financial innovations. Over time, the globalization of the financial environment has produced important changes, the activity of the international market being stimulated by the combination of 3D (disintermediation, deregulation, openness), technological development (real-time access to information) and financial innovation. As a result of this combination of factors, there has been a shift from a withdrawn investor behavior toward foreign assets - behavior caused by inherent country and foreign exchange risks - to a risk-oriented behavior. In fact, private investors have begun to delegate the management of their portfolios to financial institutions, through participation in collective investment schemes. This has helped to overcome barriers to risk management, and control of funds has been the goal of diversifying benefits.
Financial markets enjoy interest in the business world insofar as they provide an organized framework for conducting transactions and a system of principles and rules that guarantee the conclusion and execution of contracts in terms of accuracy and fairness.
The work International Financial Markets is dedicated to all those who want to discover the fascinating world of the financial environment, in which you earn real money, many, but with one exception, not to lose everything in a few seconds.
