Finance has various components such as financial institutions, financial services, financial markets, and financial instruments.

Financial institutions include banks and other non-banking financial institutions that are engaged in the business of dealing with monetary and financial transactions like loans, deposits, and investments. Financial markets are the marketplaces where equities, currencies, and bonds are traded. Financial instruments are contracts that represent a legal agreement involving any kind of monetary value. They can be classified into various categories such as equity instruments, debt instruments, derivative instruments, etc.

The tools used in financial decision-making, however, draw from many areas outside of economics: financial accounting, mathematics, probability theory, statistical theory, and psychology.
