Development of modern economy and financial market is impossible without involving the mass investor in investment processes. This is the goal of the state's financial market policy. The need to preserve savings in the face of a reduction in the key rate, and therefore a decrease in interest, encourages individuals to invest more actively in securities. New investors come to the securities market, but they are not always able to adequately assess the risk of investing in securities. To reduce the risks of individual investors, there is used a categorization mechanism, which divides them into qualified and unqualified investors, but requires improvement. Based on the analysis, it is proved that the categorization of investors cannot be limited by the regulation of the criteria for their differentiation and requires specifying the areas of protection of the interests and rights of investors. The study is based on the pragmatic Solow-Williamson methodology and a systematic approach. The indicators of investor activity and indicators characterizing the degree of investor protection in the Russian securities market are analyzed. As a result, the problems of modern categorization of individual investors in the Russian Federation are identified and analyzed. The main areas of protection of investors' interests and rights are identified, including: the choice of a financial instrument; ensuring ownership of financial instruments; transactions with financial instruments; protection from misseling; disclosure of information by issuers and professional subjects of financial markets; illegal actions of professional subjects of financial markets in relation to financial risks and protection tools. Areas of protection of investors' interests and rights are correlated with risks and protection tools. There were defined basic principles of categorization of investors-individuals.

Governments of many countries, companies and business organizations last decades increasingly pay attention and recognize the importance of the capital market for economic growth and development. One of the factors that has strong influence on the capital market, as a platform for long-term borrowing and obtaining funds, is the price movement of financial instruments traded on capital market. The price movement of financial instruments is linked to the efficiency of the market, and is under strong influence of all available information about companies, which quickly reflect on the prices of financial instruments.Fama (1965) was one of the first economist who used term „efficient financial market“. He conducteda research on the financial market and pointed out that in an efficient market, on average, competition would cause that all effects of the latest market information will be included through the value of shares traded. The hypothesis of an efficient financial market suggests that the price of the shares, financial instruments, reflects all available information, so investor cannot realize extra profits if he has some certain insider information or on the basis of publicly available historical data and information. Many investors are trying to find those securities that are underestimated, and for which is expected to growth in the future. In a case of efficient financial market, it is quite impossible to find underestimated securities because information quickly incorporated into the price of securities. Ttesting of the efficiency of financial market is largely present in the developed markets, while somewhat weaker tests have been carried out on the examples of transitional financial markets. In published researches it is most often confirmed that transition countries have or have had poorly performing financial markets, especially in the initial stages of their development (Bahmani-Oskooee et al, 2016; Kvedaras and Basdevant, 2002).In this research we are testing the efficient market hypothesis for the financial market in Bosnia and Herzegovina. We tested hypothesis that the financial market is weakly efficient. For this test we are using stock index data from the Sarajevo and Banja Luka Stock Exchange, SASX10, BIRS and BATX index. The analysis includes daily, weekly and monthly index movements from 2006 to August 2018, for SASX 10 and BIRS indices, while BATX data is available from 2009 until August 2018. In the first step we calculate returns for all periods (deily, weekly and montly) between indicies and in another step we tested autocorrelation between their returns.Efficient market hypothesis has been tested through three statistical tests: autocorrelation test, run test and variance test. The results obtained by applying different tests do not give a single answer to the question whether financial market in Bosnia and Herzegovina perform at a low level of efficiency. Auto-correlation tests reject the hypothesis of weak form market efficiency,while the run test and the test of variance ratios confirm the weak form of market efficiency. Such findings suggest that it is not possible, with sufficient precision, to predict trends in the financial market in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The present paper intends to serve as an introduction into the financial risk management universe. It starts with the basic assumption that performance of an organization is inseparable from the risks it is facing. Any organization should have in place the necessary tools to identify, assess and constantly measure the risks it is exposed to. The paper focuses in defining the basic principles in creating a viable risk management framework that keeps track of three major categories of identified financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. Emphasis is put on the models to measure these types of risks but also on the tools an organization can use in order to reduce them. The second part of the paper is dedicated to recent events that shaped and shocked financial markets and illustrate the consequences faced by organizations when risks are not properly assessed and the risk management models in place are based on dangerously unrealistic notions.

The securities market is considered as a part of the financial market. Today, the securities market has become the main object of research for many economists and scientists. One of the main reasons for this trend is that in the context of globalization of the world's economies, the main tool for the development of the financial sector of the state's economy is the development of the securities market.

Introduction. The financial market, as a combination of exchange and redistribution relations associated with the processes of purchase and sale of financial resources is a complex system that is an indicator of the development of the economy as a whole.

The purpose of the article/hypothesis: The aim of the study is an attempt to show the degree of use of financial instruments by non-financial enterprises operating on the Polish market and to determine whether their application translates into the financial results achieved by these enterprises. The hypothesis was adopted that the importance and use of financial instruments by enterprises on the Polish market is not significant, however, as a result of global transformations and the growing importance of financial markets, the activity of entities in this respect will increase. Methodology: In order to determine the degree of use of financial instruments among enterprises, the data published by the Central Statistical Office (GUS) for the years 2010–2018 were used and the key indicators illustrating the involvement of enterprises in the instruments available on the financial market were calculated. The literature on the subject was also reviewed and analyzed. Results of the research: The conducted considerations that non-financial enterprises in the polish market showed an increase in involvement in financial activities, as evidenced by the growing share of financial instruments, both on the active and passive side. On the passive side, the use of credits and loans in financing the activities of entities increased. This increase, however, did not translate into the use of the effects of financial leverage in the surveyed enterprises and an increase in the profitability of equity. In the case of assets, in the analyzed period there was an increase in the involvement of free funds in investments, mainly due to an increase in equity financial instruments. However, the analysis of financial revenues in total revenues may suggest that greater involvement in the financial sphere does not translate into profitability of assets and the results of the surveyed entities. It should be emphasized, however, that the development of the financial market and the increasing availability and variety of financial instruments strengthen the interest of enterprises in capital investments.
