Correct Answer: Facilitating trading of securities


Solution : The correct answer is (c) Facilitating trading of securities

The function of a stock exchange that provides companies with the opportunity to raise capital through the issuance of securities is "facilitating trading of securities." Stock exchanges are platforms where companies can list their securities, such as stocks and bonds, and make them available for trading to the public. Through this process, companies can raise capital by selling their securities to investors in the open market. Investors buy and sell these securities, and the stock exchange facilitates these transactions, creating a marketplace for the exchange of financial instruments.
