What are the 3 characteristics of capital?

  1. Stability, predictability, and abundance

  2. Liquidity, transparency, and diversification

  3. Mobility, sensitivity, and scarcity

  4. Risk, return, and maturity

The correct answer is: Mobility, sensitivity, and scarcity

Capital is characterized by its mobility, sensitivity, and scarcity. - Mobility refers to how easily capital can be moved or transferred between different assets or investments. - Sensitivity implies that capital can be impacted by various external factors or changes in the market. - Scarcity highlights that capital is limited and in demand, which can affect its value and availability in the market. The other options are not correct: - Option A (Stability, predictability, and abundance) does not fully capture the essence of capital as these characteristics do not specifically define capital. - Option B (Liquidity, transparency, and diversification) includes important characteristics of investments but does not fully encompass the overall characteristics of capital. - Option D (Risk, return, and maturity) focuses more on the aspects related to investments and financial instruments rather than the broader concept of capital.
