Download or read book Quote Disclosure and Price Discovery in Multiple Dealer Financial Markets written by Mark D. Flood and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We examine the effects of price disclosure on market performance in a continuous experimental multiple-dealer market in which seven professional market-makers trade a single security. The dealers trade with one another and with computerized informed and liquidity traders. Our key comparison is between fully public price queues (pre-trade transparent market) and bilateral quoting (pre-trade opaque). We find that opening spreads are wider and trading volume is lower in the opaque markets, due to higher search costs there. More importantly, however, higher search costs also induce more aggressive pricing strategies, so that price discovery is much faster in the opaque markets.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Empirical studies of asset markets and a growing experimental literature suggest that in many cases competing dealers earn some monopoly rents: they do not arrive at a Bertrand equilibrium. In spite of this, little attention has been paid to the competitive forces that impinge on dealers' abilities to earn monopoly rents. Consider a transparent, consolidated market with competing dealers. Any dealer's incentive to invest in learning about the asset's true value is mitigated by the fact that her competitors will have equal access to the information in the order flow. This suggests that in a transparent multiple dealer market we might see wider spreads and larger dealer profits than in a setting where dealers are able to internalize the benefits of price discovery. In this paper we use the economic laboratory to compare these two settings: 1) three competing dealers in a single asset with 2) three assets with a monopoly dealer in each. We find that: bid-ask spreads are wider, prices are less responsive to order flow (so there is less price discovery), and dealer profits are larger in the single asset setting. These findings suggest that when dealers are able to internalize the gains from price discovery, they compete more aggressively than when they do not have a monopoly franchise in a single asset. A dealer has little incentive to set a tight spread to pin down the asset value when her competitors will also observe the order flow.
Download or read book An Intraday Pricing Model of Foreign Exchange Markets written by Rafael Romeu and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2003-06-01 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Market makers learn about asset values as they set intraday prices and absorb portfolio flows. Absorbing these flows causes inventory imbalances. Previous work has argued that market makers change prices to manage incoming flows and offset inventory imbalances. This study argues that they have multiple instruments, or ways to manage inventory imbalances and learn about evolving asset values. Hence, they smooth inventory levels and update prior information about assets using multiple instruments. In ignoring other instruments, previous studies have ignored the information that these provide and overemphasize the role of price changes in inventory management. The model presented here provides new estimates of asymmetric information and inventory effects, the price impact of each instrument, the cost of liquidity, and the impact of an intervention on these costs.
Download or read book Confusion de Confusiones 1688 written by José de la Vega and published by Colchis Books. This book was released on 1957 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first that describes the practices of any stock exchange; it makes evident a high development of practices, with puts, calls, pools, and manipulations; and it appeared as early as the seventeenth century. Not inappropriately the stock exchange described is that of Amsterdam, a city which at the date of the volume’s publication —1688 — was still the leading financial center of the world. The book, to be sure, is hardly a systematic account of the institution; the author pursued moral, philosophical, and rhetorical objectives, and, while saying a lot that seems now to be of little value, manages somehow to leave unsaid a great deal that would be of interest for us. Nevertheless, it represents, even in its peculiar form, a really important source of information about the stock exchange, and indeed about the Dutch business world of that period.

Download or read book Optimal Transparency in a Dealership Market with an Application to Foreign Exchange written by Richard K. Lyons and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper addresses the issue of optimal transparency in a multiple-dealer market. In particular, we examine the question: Would risk-averse dealers prefer ex-ante that signed order flow were observable? We answer this question with the solution to a mechanism design problem. The resulting incentive-efficient mechanism is one in which signed order flow is not observable. Rather, dealers prefer a slower pace of price discovery because it induces additional risk-sharing. Specifically, slower price discovery permits additional trading with customers prior to revelation; this reduces the variance of unavoidable position disturbances, thereby reducing the market making risk inherent in price discovery. We then apply the framework to the spot foreign exchange market in order to understand better the current degree of transparency in that market.

Download or read book Discriminatory Pricing of Over the Counter Derivatives written by Harald Hau and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2019-05-07 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New regulatory data reveal extensive price discrimination against non-financial clients in the FX derivatives market. The client at the 90th percentile pays an effective spread of 0.5%, while the bottom quarter incur transaction costs of less than 0.02%. Consistent with models of search frictions in over-the-counter markets, dealers charge higher spreads to less sophisticated clients. However, price discrimination is eliminated when clients trade through multi-dealer request-for-quote platforms. We also document that dealers extract rents from captive clients and market opacity, but only for contracts negotiated bilaterally with unsophisticated clients.
