Government securities that cannot be publicly traded are typically those issued in private placements or certain types of bonds, like Treasury bills or notes that are sold directly to institutional investors or specific entities rather than through public auctions.

Thus, while all publicly traded companies are owned by the public, not all publicly owned entities are publicly traded.
