Executive Summery
Stock exchanges are like market places where stockbrokers buy and sell securities for individuals or institutions. Stock prices fluctuate from minute to minute. The price of a stock at any given time is determined by the demand for it. Stock markets have gone through tremendous improvements to match the expectations of the growing industry. The introduction of norms for greater transparency in operations and the international trading and investments exposure as well as support of professional analysis have brought about tremendous improvements in this sector.

Dhaka Stock Exchange oversees the operations of banks and financial institutions as a watchdog .The scams in the past decades have put tremendous pressure on its operations. The opportunities are many with a wide choice of organizations and jobs to choose from professionals in this sector can hope for a good future.

The work of stock brokers has become a challenging one as it incorporates specialized knowledge of the markets as well as professional acumen. Brokers specialize in a variety of financial services such as bond issues, handling institutional accounts, or mutual funds.

They are employed by investment consultancies, broker firms, banks, insurance companies, pension funds, foundations, mutual funds and other financial institutions.

Stock brokers commonly divide their operations between private clients and institutional work. Alternatively some brokers act only as dealers (client investment managers) while others are principally advisors (equity sales advisors). In large firms stock brokers deal with and advise smaller firms or work for both individual and institutional clients.
