A conductive member for a touch panel has a transparent insulating substrate and a first conductive layer which is formed on the transparent insulating substrate, in which the first conductive layer has a first mesh pattern which is composed of a plurality of first mesh cells having a closed shape and formed of thin metal wires, the number of directional components in which vertices of the plurality of first mesh cells are arranged in a straight line is 1 or less, and the number of directional components in which vertices of the plurality of first mesh cells are arranged in a straight line represents the number of sets of parallel line segments, each of the line segments passing through four or more vertices of four or more of the plurality of first mesh cells which are continuously arranged in a straight line.
