Capital markets handle long-term securities such as equities and bonds. The Government Bond Market (long-term debt) and the Stock Market (equity) are therefore part of the capital market, whereas the Call Money Market (overnight/very short-term funds) and the Treasury-Bill Market (≤ 1-year instruments) belong to the money market. Hence exactly two of the four markets listed fall under capital markets.
