Description
|
The Australian financial sector performs a pivotal role in providing credit to all other sectors in the Australian economy. An efficient financial sector is essential in financing the operations of the economy through both intermediation (i.e. borrowing the money from one sector to on-lend to another) and through auxiliary financial services such as securities broking and funds management, where the financial enterprise facilitates the smooth processing of funds from one sector to another.
