We introduce a new empirical methodology that takes account of liquidity risk in a Value-at-Risk framework, and quantify liquidity risk premiums for portfolios and individual stocks traded on the automated auction market Xetra which operates at various European exchanges. When constructing...

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...

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)...

Easley / Kiefer / O'Hara / Paperman (1996) (EKOP) have proposed an empirical methodology that allows to estimate the probability of informed trading and that has subsequently been used to address a wide range of issues in market microstructure. The data needed for estimation is the number of...

We revisit the role of time in measuring the price impact of trades using a new empirical method that combines spread decomposition and dynamic duration modeling. Previous studies which have addressed the issue in a vector-autoregressive framework conclude that times when markets are most active...

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)...
