Option 2: An inferior good.

Option 1: Higher dividend payouts
 

Option 2: Reduced risk of fraud

Option 4: Lower income tax rates

Team Careers360 27th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Reduced risk of fraud
 


Solution : The correct answer is (b) Reduced risk of fraud

The primary benefit of opening a demat account for trading securities is the reduced risk of fraud. A demat account holds your securities in an electronic or dematerialized form, eliminating the need for physical share certificates. This reduces the risk of theft, loss, forgery, or other fraudulent activities associated with paper-based securities. Additionally, dematerialization ensures that ownership and transactions related to securities are securely and accurately recorded, minimizing the risk of fraud and providing a more secure and efficient way to hold and trade securities.
