Finance includes various areas for managing funds and assets effectively.

The three prominent domains within finance are business or corporate finance, investments, and financial markets.

Business finance deals with the financial decisions made within a company to manage its overall financial health.

For example, consider Apple Inc.

Their business finance primarily focuses on financial decisions such as investing in research and development, acquiring new technologies, and expanding into new markets.

Investments involve allocating money into assets such as stocks, bonds, real estate, or mutual funds with the expectation of generating returns based on risk tolerance and financial goals.

Individuals may choose to invest in the stock of Apple Inc. because they believe in the company's growth potential.

Financial markets are platforms where buyers and sellers trade financial assets such as stocks, bonds, currencies, and commodities.

For instance, when investors trade Apple stock on the NASDAQ exchange, they participate in the stock market, which is an example of a financial market.

All three areas of finance are closely interconnected, so a comprehensive understanding of these areas is essential.
