- Someone who buys and sells financial instruments such as stocks, bonds and derivatives. It is important to understand that a broker who simply fills buy or sell orders is not a trader, as they are merely executing instructions given to them. Traders are either professionals working in a financial institution or a corporation, or individual investors.
- International trader is someone who exchanges capital (factors of production used to create goods or services), goods, and services across territories. In most countries, it represents a significant share of gross domestic product (GDP).
