Abstract
The interaction between the money and capital markets is a crucial topic within Iran's financial system. Despite numerous studies in financial markets, the pathology of this interaction remains largely unexplored. This research aims to identify and systematically analyze the impediments to the interaction between these two markets.Given the highly specialized nature of the research topic and the limited scholarly attention it has received, the study's population is restricted to experts and academics in the field. These individuals possess both accessibility and a deep understanding of the interaction between money and capital markets and its related pathologies in Iran.This research employs a mixed-methods approach. After a systematic literature review and interviews with eight experts, 75 impediments (25 from literature and 50 from interviews) were identified and coded using thematic analysis. Subsequently, these impediments were assessed using a fuzzy Delphi questionnaire distributed among 12 experts, leading to the confirmation of 65 impediments. These were categorized into five dimensions: policymaking, financial institutions, laws and regulations, financial instruments, and structural factors.Finally, an ISM (Interpretive Structural Modeling) questionnaire was distributed to 12 experts. Using the Group ISM method in MATLAB R2021a software, the internal relationships among these impediments were analyzed. The results revealed that policymaking is the most significant hindering factor to market interaction in Iran, followed by financial institutions, laws and regulations, financial instruments, and structural factors, in order of importance. Furthermore, policymaking and laws and regulations were identified as the most influential criteria, while financial institutions, financial instruments, and structural factors were deemed the most dependent criteria. This analysis was also performed at the component level within each dimension.
