Time was a constraint for my report, because short time is not enough
to cover the scope of the report.

vital role.
4.4 CAUSES FOR THE FLUCTUATION OF PRICES OF SHARES ANDSECURITIES
Prices of shares and securities fluctuate time to time like other products prices.
Demand and supply laws are activate in this market. Prices fluctuate here rapidly
than other products prices. Share prices are influenced by multiple factors.
Causes for the fluctuation of prices of shares and securities are stated below:
Business condition: There is a close relation between price fluctuationsof shares-securities with business condition. Good condition of business
increases the price of shares and terrible condition leads to decrease theprice. Profit falling influences the share price. Business conditions are
broadly two types - boom and depression. In boom market share prices
increase and in depression share prices decrease.
Rate of dividend: Share prices are related with the change in rate ofdividend. Investors invest theft money to cam profit. So, the change in
rate of dividend influences the price of shares.
8/3/2019 04 Body

2 2 | P a g e
Bank rate: Bank rate has a special influence on price changes of shares.Increased bank rate encourages investors to save money in hank. As a
result, investors sell their shares to liquidate money for saving purpose
which increase the supply of shares in the market and prices diminish On
the other band, decreased bank rate encourages investors to invest
money on shares high expand market-demand of shares. Growingdemand increases the price of shares.
Inflation and deflation: Inflation lessens the power of purchase ofmoney. A lot of amount of money exists in people hands during inflation.
In tips Lime people tries to gel sonic opportunities by investing excess
money in share market. So, demand of shares increases which increases
the prices of shares. In time of deflation, share prices decrease by the
influence of fewer demands.
Monetary and credit policy of the central bank: Increase and decreaseof prices of shares and securities are mostly influenced by the monetaryand credit policy of the central bank. If central bank follows weak
economic and credit policy, lack of money is seen in the market. Investors
who already have taken credits from bank are eager to repay loans even
by selling their shares. In this situation supply of share are increased and
for excess supply than demand price decreases and market becomes
bear market.
Government fiscal and taxing policy: The fiscal and taxing policy of thegovernment influences share prices. If the government increases duty and
tax, prices of goods increase and sale reduce comparatively. A reductionin sale indicates a decrease in revenue. Decrease in revenue means
decrease in rate of dividend. If the rate of dividend decreases, share price
of the company will also decrease. On other hand, if company gets tax
holiday facility, tax rebate and other benefits from the government the
companys profitability increases. Increased profit means an increase in
rate of dividend and increase in share price.
Economic depression: Economic depression affects the share marketand entire economy of the country unfavorably. During economic
depression purchasing power of people decreases at a significant rate. At
that period share prices decrease in the capital.
Change In the policy of investment organizations: Investmentorganizations like banks, insurances, board of investment etc. if decides
to sell the shares of any particular business, then the price of shares of
that company reduces. On the other hand if the investment organizations
decide to make investment in a particular organization, share price of that
organization increases.

Hartal-strike: Hartal-strike has a relation with business aid industries.During strike production decreases but fixed expenses are borne by the
companies. During these period companies profitability reduces.
Continuous strike and Hartals adversely affect the production of the
companies and they incur loss. Decrease in profitability and loss reduces
share prices.
Import and export policy of the government: Share prices alsofluctuate depending on import and export policy. If the government
provides any special rebate, export facility on export of any particular
goods, profitability of those exporting companies will probably increase.
People become more interested to purchase the shares of those
exporting companies under these facilities. This increases demands for
shares and increases share prices. On other hand, if the mentioned
facilities are withdrawn that the opposite happens.
Conduct of members: Price fluctuation also happens depending onconduct of members and rumors, if any rumor can spread in favor of any
particular company, share prices of that company will increase and vise
versa. Again if any influential member intentionally acts in favor of any
company or purchases shares of any particular company, then share
prices of that company will increase.
Other factors: Some other factors are also responsible for pricefluctuation of shares like change in any policy of the state, change in the
members of ministry, civil war, election, international incidents etc.Besides for any random situation share price fluctuates such as sudden
flood, landslide etc.
4.5 DISTINCTION BETWEEN PRODUCES EXCHANGE AND STOCKEXCHANGE

securities of listed companies are bought and sold.

5.1 FINDINGS
I have identified negative side of the share market of Bangladesh.
Lack of institutional investment: A strong capital market in any countrycannot be established based only on individual investments. To boost up
the capital market institutional investment is required. In our country the
number of institutional investment is very small, which is the main reason
for long term depression of the share market.
Manipulation in trading: In the share market of our country group of
dishonest brokers and members exist who intentionally manipulate the
share market by fictitious transactions depending upon the condition of
the market. This results small investors loose everything all of their
investment. On the other hand, few brokers become from nothing to
everything. This type of manipulation is a hurdle for the development of
the capital market because investors loose their reliance.
Frustration of the investors: Slow economic activities, political unrest,
economic depression of the South-East Asia and its negative impact and
above all the continuous fall of share price create frustration in the mind of
investors in our country. As a result, they (investors) do not want to invest
their hard-earned money. But because of manipulation of a group of
brokers, they have lost everything. Thats why the share market is not
getting its desired speed.
Shortage of fundamental based securities: One of the weaknesses of
capital market in Bangladesh is that it lacks blue chips, good shares and
debentures. Shortage of securities is another reason. Few types of blue
chips are not sufficient enough to attract investors to the share market.
Lack of transparency: The listed companies in the share market do not
hold Annual General Meeting (AGM) regularly. Investors are not satisfied
with the annual general report of most of the companies. They purchase
shares at a high price but the declared dividend is low. This is one of the
reasons that investors are not attracted to the share market.
Poor supervision: The major function of Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) is to control and monitor the share-market.
Unfortunately SEC has failed to exercise its main function to control the
share market. The commission is not taking any actions against the listed
companies that violate the rules of SEC. Besides reluctance in
investigation of manipulation of broker house, passing of time in h actions
against them are some of the accusations against SEC. The weakness in

monitoring by the Securities and Exchange Co creates lack of reliance in
the minds of investors.
Lack of clear-cut concept about the market: Most of the investors of
our county do not have clear concept about share market. They do not
make investment based on the assets and liabilities or fundamental of
companies rather on rumors. As a result, investors are negatively
affected.
Lack of co-ordination: There are two bodies in our share market, one is
the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that controls the share
market and the other is the Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) and Chittagong
Stock Exchange (CSF). Often conflict arises between these two bodies
regarding circuit breaker, lock in, netting vs. rolling. The lack of co-
ordination between these two bodies is clear that acts as barriers in the
development of market.
Tax burden: Tax rate of the listed companies in our country is very high.Thats why companies are relucr topsy dividend to shareholders. Besides,
tax at source is deducted on dividend to shareholders which is double
taxation. Lack of tax rebate cannot speed up the market.
Lack of public confidence: After the share market fall in 1996 none of
the involved persons were punished or brought to law. The small
investors who have lost lacks of their invest and became hand to mouth
have no confidence on the share-market. Lack of public confidence is one
of the major problems of share- market Prompt steps should be taken to
remove these problems of share-market. In this case the concerned
including the government should come forward. Only then share market
will be able to overcome its problems and play its role properly.
5.2 CONCLUSIONS
Business institution like share market is the most sensitive organisation of oureconomy. If economy raises incomes alleviates poverty and moves the countryahead. And in this big capital market DSE plays an important role to attract theinvestors .The country still must guard against threats for its capital markets. So,
all markets need independent and transparent regulatory oversight to investorsto minimize risk. DSE has gained the confidence of public and is able to attractmore and more funds.

5.3 RECOMMENDATIONS
In the previous chapter I have talked about some problems which I haveobserved in Institution for Promotion in Business, specially on share market.Its my responsibility to contribute something in my workings so here I suggestsome recommendations of the identified problems.
Share market improves the economic condition ol any country. So, concaitraftonshould be given to improve share market ultimately to progress the economy of a
country. Following mentioned steps can be taken of improvement of share-market:
1. Many investment and merchant banks should be given parmission to
conduct their operations.
2. Members of stock exchange must be intreased.
3. Manipulation of shares should be stopped through effective strategies.
4. Supply of financial tools must be increased according to demand.
5. Shares of government business organizations should be sold in the stock
exchange.
6. People must be educated about the share business.
7. Lock-in system should be started for foreign investors and it must be ass
wed that those investors cannot return their investment before a certain
period.
8. Being the directors of listed companies must be ptohibited to be brokers
and they should be prevented from direct investment in share business.
9. Publicizing wrong information in prospectus must be under sentence.
10. Among investors and officials of SEC who will be hivolved in gambling
and manipulating in share business must be under sentence through laws.
11. Dishonest brokers must be punished.
These are the recommendations of the identified problems and it is reallyexpected that these recommendations will help share marke in many ways.
