What is Financing

The field of finance refers to the concepts of time, money and risk and how they are interrelated. Banks are the main facilitators of funding through the provision of credit, although private equity, mutual funds, hedge funds, and other organizations have become important. Financial assets, known as investments, are financially managed with careful attention to financial risk management to control financial risk. Financial instruments allow many forms ofsecuritized assets to be traded on securities exchanges such as stock exchanges, including debt such as bondsas well as equity in publicly-traded corporations.
