Functions and structure of the market. The resulted definition of the market demands the approach to its characteristic as to the complex organized object consisting of a wide spectrum of separate parts, elements. Such variety of components and specificity of functioning of each element predetermine the basic functions which are carried out by the market.

- The market is a communication facility, communications of sellers of the goods and buyers. Commodity producers, that is the enterprises realizing the goods and services concern to sellers; the workers selling the ability to work, a labour; owners of all kinds of industrial resources which sell or concede using these resources for certain time. The consumers getting the offered goods and services, and also separate consumers or the firms buying those resources concern to buyers (alive work, raw material, the capital) by means of which they and carry out manufacture of the goods and services; more often the same subject acts in the market and the seller and the buyer.

In turn, the prices operate as a signal to sellers and buyers, informing them the information on deficiency of the goods, services, resources or about their surplus.

The market as a whole is characterized by the complex and branched out structure. It can be classified to various attributes:

- On elements of a market infrastructure;
