D Correct answer
Explanation

Listing shares on a stock exchange provides high liquidity - investors can buy or sell shares quickly during trading hours at market-determined prices. This liquidity is a key advantage of listed securities over unlisted investments. Listing does NOT guarantee returns (prices can fall), ensure long-term appreciation (depends on company performance), or reduce risk (equities remain volatile). Liquidity simply means ease of conversion to cash.
