Development of the securities market in Latvia compared with the countries of Western Europe, Scandinavia, and North America has started much later and has been slow; therefore, the interest of individuals and companies to actively participate in the capital market can be assessed as low. The stock market that is considered as one of the types of the securities market is an unstructured environment where every investor has to decide on how to invest. The potential investor interested in stocks as an investment object can buy shares of the companies and potentially earn money despite the fact that investments in stocks are considered as a very high-risk investment. The research aim: to evaluate the Latvian stock market as one of the investment objects. The scope of the research determines the topics covered: investment opportunities in the stocks of the regulated Latvian stock exchange. The research findings point out that the performance of the Nasdaq Riga stock exchange despite its relatively small number of the issuers of shares is effective. The author concludes that use of the investment accounts is not sufficiently promoted for private individuals, consequently, the culture of savings lags behind in Latvia. In order to educate the private investors and promote decision-making on the purchase of shares, it would be advisable for the Nasdaq Riga to provide the investors with concise information on the shares of the companies and their characteristics. The quantitative and qualitative methods of economics research, including the method of comparative analysis and synthesis, as well as statistical and graphical analysis methods are used in the research.

The stock market, which could be seen as one of the types of securities market, is an unstructured environment in which every investor needs to understand how to invest. For a potential investor interested in shares as one of the objects of investment, it is possible to buy the shares and potentially earn despite the fact that an investment in shares is considered to be a very high-risk investment. The research aims to assess Baltic Main List stocks as an investment object in the Baltic regulated market. The research results showed that investors should assess and invest in the companies of the Baltic Main List on Nasdaq Vilnius and Nasdaq Riga if they plan to gain income from an increase in share prices and to assess and invest in the companies of the Baltic Main List on Nasdaq Tallinn and Nasdaq Riga if they plan to earn income from dividends. The author concludes that the use of an investment account has not been sufficiently popularised among individuals, which does not contribute to the development of savings culture in Latvia and in the other Baltic States. For the education of private investors and the promotion of making decisions on share purchases, it would be desirable for investors to offer summarised information on company shares and their characteristics on the Nasdaq website. The research employed general quantitative and qualitative methods for economic research, including comparative analysis and synthesis, statistical analysis and graphic analysis.

The article is devoted to the study of the current state, problems and prospects of development of the Ukrainian stock market. It is proved that the stock market is a tool for implementing the state's Innovation Policy and a priority factor in mobilizing financial and capital resources. Stock market commodities are securities (stocks, bonds, etc.). Trends, features of functioning and development of the Ukrainian stock market are analysed. The analysis of the main indicators of exchanges, the structure and volume of exchange contracts with securities is carried out. The structural distribution of exchange contracts by trading organizers is established. The analysis of operations with securities on the organized market, unorganized market and stock exchanges of the country is carried out. The largest volume of trading on financial instruments on trade organizers in 2019 was recorded with government bonds of Ukraine – UAH 295 billion according to the National Securities and stock market Commission, the exchange market during 2019 saw consolidation of securities trading on two stock exchanges “Perspektyva” and “PFTS Ukraine Stock Exchange”: 98.7% of the value of exchange contracts. Analysis of the main indicators that determine the state of the stock market has shown that the modern securities market of Ukraine is characterized by an extremely high degree of fragmentation, limited liquidity and a variety of types of securities, which, in turn, are the main obstacles to the development of the stock market and the capital market as a whole. Attention is focused on the main problems that hinder the functioning of the stock market. It is proved that the development of the stock market is hindered by: insufficient competitiveness of the domestic stock market; imperfect tax incentives for market development; low level of corporate governance development; imperfect regulatory and legislative framework of Ukraine; low liquidity and capitalization. The directions of development of the stock market of Ukraine are proposed: improving the efficiency of regulation of issuers; stimulating the inflow of investment to the stock market; ensuring reliable and efficient functioning of the market infrastructure; ensuring the functioning of the unified state policy for stimulating the improvement of the investment climate.

In order to finance World War I, the British government sold war bonds to millions of investors and savers, thereby prompting a wider interest in financial securities including stocks and shares during the interwar period. Faced with a large intake of investment newcomers, the City of London was anxious of ‘amateur’ involvement in the market. The largest securities market, the London Stock Exchange, restricted access to small investors where possible, which pushed much of the new retail activity to the market fringes. Here, ‘outside brokers’ and ‘bucket shops’ catered for investment newcomers, the more gullible of which fell prey to fraudulent share pushers. Scholars have entirely overlooked this vibrant grey market for financial securities. But it was here—and not just at the organized exchanges—that ever more people made their first experiences with the ups and the downs of the stock market, most prominently in the great crash of 1929. This new perspective brings a sharper contour on some fundamental challenges that Britain’s financial landscape was facing in the interwar period: a large intake of new investors, a resurgence of financial fraud, and a new struggle over the distinction between speculation and gambling. The City’s response to these challenges can be described as financial paternalism. After a surge in political democratization, there was very little appetite to enfranchise ordinary people in the stock market. Instead, institutions like the Stock Exchange deliberately took a conservative stance on the ‘democratisation of investment’.

Private Investors

The key trend in the development of the securities market in 2020–2021 was a record inflow of retail investors. At the same time, the increasing number of private investors on the stock market is accompanied by their active use of social networks. The development of social networks enables private investors to establish communication with each other, pool capital and develop common strategies, which ultimately increase the influence of individuals on the stock market dynamics. A review of modern economic scientific literature has shown insufficient coverage of the issue of social networks impact on the securities market. In this connection, the authors made an attempt to investigate such precedents to systematize them. The article presents the dynamics of the number of private investors and their share in trading turnover, gives reasons for the expansion of retail investors presence on the securities market, considers statistics demonstrating the breadth of the Internet and social networks penetration into various spheres of citizens' life. Cases of market manipulation through the actions of private investors in social networks were analyzed and summarized, as well as government regulators’ reaction to such actions was revealed. A number of risks associated with social networks influence on investment decisions by private investors are identified and recommendations for their protection and leveling the negative background of social networks are proposed.

The article reveals the need to create alternative stock market that would open access to participation in the SME. Based on the experience of alternative securities markets in Europe, conclusions regarding the need for a stock exchange available to wider circles of consumers to increase their own capitalization and support the domestic stock market. In times of severe economic crisis, support for small and medium businesses is extremely important in Ukraine. One of the effective mechanisms for increasing the capitalization of enterprises is the attraction of stock exchange instruments in the stock market. But given the fact that the domestic stock market is in a systemic decline, most Ukrainian enterprises (especially those strategically important for the country's destinations, such as enterprises of the agro-industrial, metallurgical and mines-mining complex) choose foreign exchange platforms, in particular Warsaw (WSE) and London (LSE) Stock Exchanges. Due to the attraction of additional funds on foreign stock sites, Ukrainian companies managed to achieve a significant increase in their own capitalization. Today, the necessity of creating an alternative stock market in Ukraine is extremely important. This will provide an opportunity for the following: raising the level of development of the stock market of Ukraine; raising the popularity of stock instruments among enterprises and the population, which will provide preconditions for attracting temporarily free funds for the purpose of investing in the securities market; raising the capitalization of domestic enterprises through the attraction of exchange instruments; the emergence of opportunities for new small and medium-sized businesses to become involved in the stock sector; attraction of small and medium enterprises to the stock sector will make business in Ukraine more transparent, and more attractive both for domestic and foreign investors.
