Restrictions on freedom of contract and investment in the Algerian financial market

Abstract

The financial market is a place to meet the supply and demand for various financial instruments, and it plays a vital role in national economies by providing opportunities for companies to finance themselves through public savings. However, this requires a degree of security to make the market more attractive and efficient. Therefore, to ensure market security, transparency, and equality among participants, it was necessary to restrict the contractual freedom of the various parties, whether they are issuers of securities or investors. Accordingly, we question these contractual restrictions and controls within the Algerian financial market, and the extent to which they deviate from the generally accepted rules for concluding legal transactions.
