I disagree with this argument, it can be said that the secondary market is equally or more important than the primary market, due to the fact that it is the secondary markets that determine what will be the prices that the companies that issue bonds will sell in the primary market.

Secondary markets can also be considered to be responsible for making securities easier to sell in the primary market due to their greater liquidity.
