Explanation of Solution

Direct and indirect finances are different in the sense that in the former, there is no place for financial intermediary and in the latter; the financial intermediary plays an important role. In direct financing, the finance can be done directly through the financial market whereas in indirect financing, the money deposited or invested by households and other economic agents is used to finance the borrowing requirements through financial intermediaries.
