Governments used loans many centuries ago because there are often occurred situations when borrowings were the only way to attract additional financial resources.

Thus, the article deals with the basic prerequisites of the government securities market and its function at different stages of development of economic relations. So, it was found, that the main functions of local borrowing in XIV-XX centuries include the following: fiscal, public debt management, improved economic situation in some areas and repayment of previously issued loans.
