Tracing back to 17th century spice trading where intermediaries bought and sold shares to offer investors higher liquidity, market making has evolved tremendously. Through equities, foreign exchange rates, and even physical assets, market makers today provide liquidity and are ready to buy any asset at publicly quoted prices.
