The long-run consumption risk model provides a theoretically appealing explanation for prominent asset pricing puzzles, but its intricate structure presents a challenge for econometric analysis. This paper proposes a two-step indirect inference approach that disentangles the estimation of the...

The long-run consumption risk (LRR) model is a promising approach to resolve prominent asset pricing puzzles. The simulated method of moments (SMM) provides a natural framework to estimate its deep parameters, but caveats concern model solubility and weak identification. We propose a twostep...

Wenn Banken und Makler Kauf- oder Verkaufsaufträge ihrer Kunden nicht an die zentrale Börse weiterleiten, sondern eine Ausführung gegen das eigene (interne) Orderbuch vornehmen, so spricht man von einer „Internalisierung“ der Kundenorder. Dieses Vorgehen wird in der Europäischen Union...

Mehr und mehr werden internationale Börsenplätze als elektronisches Handelssystem mit offenem Auftragsbuch gestaltet. Diese Form der Handelsorganisation ersetzt zunehmend die „klassische“ Form des Parketthandels mit zentralem Kursmakler. Sogar die weltweit wichtigste Börse, die New York...

Basierend auf einem strukturellen Modell analysieren die Autoren das Bedeutung informierten Handels (adverse Selektionseffekte) und dessen Auswirkung auf die Liquiditätsqualität in Xetra, dem elektronischen Handelssystem der Deutschen Börse . Die ökonometrische Analyse basiert auf einem...

The trading of securities on multiple markets raises the question of each market’s sharein the discovery of the informationally efficient price. We exploit salient distributionalfeatures of multivariate financial price processes to uniquely determine these contributions.Thereby we resolve the...

Based on a structural model we analyze adverse selection costs and liquidity supply in a pure open limit order book market. Given the discontenting empirical model performance reported in the previous literature, we relax restrictive assumptions of the underlying theoretical model concerning...

Electronic limit order books are ubiquitous in markets today. However, theoretical models for limit order markets fail to explain the real world data well. Sandas (2001) tests the classic Glosten (1994) model for order book equilibrium and rejects it. We reconfirm this result for one of the...

Dufour and Engle (2000) have shown that the duration between subsequent trade events carries informational content with respect to the evolution of the fundamental asset value. Their analysis supports the notion that no trade means no information derived from Easley and O'Hara's (1992)...

We propose a simulation-based strategy to estimate and empirically assess a class of asset pricing models that account for rare but severe consumption contractions that can extend over multiple periods. Our approach expands the scope of prevalent calibration studies and tackles the inherent...
