Abstract

"Market quality" is a complex, ambiguous term that means different things to different people. How should it be defined, measured, monitored, and improved? What is the evidence about the current state of our markets? How effective have recent innovations been? How can we better meet investor needs? These are some of the questions that we address in this book, along with a broad range of issues concerning equity market structure, regulation, and the quest for best execution. Throughout, particular attention is given to the perspective of front line participants on the buy-side and sell-side trading desks.

Abstract

Interest in the Latin American emerging markets (LAEM) has increased considerably in recent years. It is often claimed that they have to pay a price for being too different from developed markets, i.e. for having weak institutions, failed macroeconomic programs, political instability, poor corporate governance and high trading costs. Victor Silverio Posadas Hernandez explores three sets of questions: " What are the investment laws in the LAEM and how do they compare to those of developed countries? " How heterogeneous are the implicit trading costs in the LAEM and which factors are responsible for the heterogeneity? " How does the predictability of stock returns in the LAEM differ from those documented for developed markets?

Abstract

The securities exchange industry is in a state of flux. Exchanges constantly develop new revenue sources and products, try to expand their market share through fierce competition and pursue the consolidation of the industry. A prerequisite for this development was their transformation into market-oriented for-profit entities that are dominated by outside investors. This process is commonly referred to as demutualization. In order to understand the current developments in the securities exchange industry, Felix Treptow examines the changing relationship between exchanges and issuers, analyses the micro- and macroeconomic drivers of the demutualization decision, and investigates its impact on market liquidity. He presents a detailed analysis of both the determinants as well as the consequences of the demutualization of securities exchanges.

Abstract

Most market places in today’s exchange industry operate on fully electronic trading systems. The predominant form of trading systems is the open limit order book pooling all buy and sell limit orders in one single order book. The attractiveness of an order book is determined by its liquidity. Consequently, liquidity is the competitive factor for an exchange. However, it is not the exchange that provides the liquidity but the limit orders standing in the order book. The question is: Who are these traders that provide liquidity on a voluntary basis? A high frequency transaction data set for the German equity market is the basis for Alexandra Hachmeister’s extensive empirical analysis. This includes a detailed market description of the German equity market, a new methodological approach for the identification of informed traders and finally the analysis of the individual liquidity providing and demanding behavior of the identified informed traders. Questioning the existing theoretical literature on liquidity provision in equity markets, she finds strong evidence for liquidity providing behavior of informed traders.

Abstract

Créée par le pouvoir royal après la débâcle du financier John Law, puis démantelée lors de la Révolution française, la Bourse de Paris acquiert ses traits caractéristiques sous Napoléon: dans un lieu officiel, les agents de change, commerçants et officiers ministériels bénéficient, jusqu'au démantèlement amiable de leur corporation en 1988, du monopole légal sur les transactions boursières. A l'aube du XXIe siècle, la Bourse de Paris, transformée en société par actions, s'associe avec ses homologues amstellodamoise, bruxelloise, portugaise et le marché londonien de produits dérivés. En 2007, cet attelage paneuropéen fusionne avec la Bourse de New York. Désormais, la bourse parisienne est la filiale d'un groupe transatlantique, lui-même coté en bourse. Adopter une perspective diachronique aide à se défaire des représentations en apesanteur de la "finance" qui entravent l'analyse comme la critique. Ainsi, ce livre explicite l'entrelacs de contingence et de nécessité qui fait l'histoire économique et sociale de la Bourse de Paris et des activités boursières en France.

Abstract

In 1992, there was an explosion of 'stock fever' in Shanghai. 'From the moment I set foot in Shanghai until my last day there, people from all walks of life wanted to talk to me about the market', Ellen Hertz writes. Her 1998 study sets the stock market and its players in the context of Shanghai society, and it probes the dominant role played by the state, which has yielded a stock market very different from those of the West. A trained anthropologist, she explains the way in which investors and officials construct a 'moral storyline' to make sense of this great structural innovation, identifying a struggle between three groups of actors - the big investors, the little investors, and the state - to control the market.
