____ execute transactions desired by investors and trade stock options for their own account.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Market makers execute transactions desired by investors by buying and selling securities for their own account. This helps ensure there is a liquid market for the security, as the market maker is always available to buy or sell at a quoted price. Floor brokers execute orders on behalf of clients on the exchange floor, while discount brokers offer lower-cost trades but do not typically provide market-making services.
