Solution
The secondary market is more commonly known as the stock market or the stock exchange. Here, the previously issued securities are bought and sold by investors. There is no fresh issue. After the IPO, when the shares are listed on the stock exchange, they can be traded in the secondary market. In this market, securities are traded between investors. The main difference between the primary and secondary markets is that in the primary market only new securities are issued, whereas in the secondary market the already existing securities are traded.
