Hi WikiDorset, your lead paragraph might look something like this:
Securities market participants include persons and institutions on both sides of transactions in various securities markets, and also those facilitating and regulating the transactions. Such transactions are typically among investors or custodian banks buying or selling securities that are executed through a broker-dealer or other transfer agent, such as a prime brokerage in the environment of a stock exchange or other capital market. These transactions may be monitored by a securities commission. This article primarily describes market participants in the United States, but notes differences in practices elsewhere.

WikiDorset, you may find the following table and non-"weasel" intro useful:
Transactions may occur in four ways, where buying or selling may be "short" or "long", as follows, when the trader in securities:
Transaction | Short | Long |
---|---|---|
Buy | Borrows funds for securities | Pays for securities outright |
Sell | Borrows securities to sell for funds | Has securities to sell outright |

I took the liberty of adding the {{Financial market participants}} template that you appeared to want, earlier. Cheers, User:HopsonRoad 21:29, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
It's OK to make your article specifically about US practices, if you don't have enough information to characterize word-wide practices or they're too diverse to characterize. In this case the article might be called, "Securities market participants (US)". Cheers, User:HopsonRoad 15:12, 18 March 2017 (UTC)
Hi WikiDorset,
I believe that I provided references where needed. I suggest that the article be titled, Securities market participants (US). You can create it by clicking on this red-letter link: Securities market participants (US). You would then paste the contents of your sandbox into the edit box and type "New article" in the Edit summary box. You would then go to the bottom and unmask the categories, which are now hidden by <!-- -->. Congratulations on all your work!

Hi WikiDorset,
I suggest that, when we've tidied up what you have developed here, we announce it at Talk: Financial market participants as material that we plan to substitute for what's there. There's been little substantive action in the Financial market participants article, which has been tagged for lack of references. Your material is much more appropriate, IMO. We would title it, Financial market participants (US).
If we did that, we'd leave notice on the project bulletin board and notify recent major contributors. What do you think?

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Securities market participants (United States), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Dematerialization. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hello wikidorset - welcome to the show. One of things I do is merge pages to clear the backlog of proposed mergers. I notice you've done some merging recently. I've left some messages on the relevant Talk pages but I thought I'd explain here so as not to put you off! The right way to merge pages is at WP:MERGE. It involves, among other things, putting templates on to the pages themselves (not the Talk pages) to generate discussion, if that's required. You can carry out a WP:BOLD edit too without discussion. If you would like help, please leave a message on my Talk page. Shhhnotsoloud ( talk) 10:14, 10 April 2017 (UTC)
