What is a Dealer (OTC) market?

  1. Market for gold trading

  2. Market for rare artwork

  3. Online marketplace for books

  4. Market where market makers post bid-ask quotes

The correct answer is: Market where market makers post bid-ask quotes

A Dealer (OTC) market is a market where market makers post bid-ask quotes. In an over-the-counter (OTC) market, securities are traded directly between parties without the supervision of an exchange. Market makers play a crucial role in providing liquidity by quoting bid and ask prices for various securities. This option is correct because it accurately describes the function of a Dealer (OTC) market. Options A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not accurately describe what a Dealer (OTC) market is.
