I propose a model in which firms can convey their quality by listing on a stock exchange. To list, firms must comply with costly listing requirements allowing investors to recognize imperfectly their quality. A profit maximizing exchange may set listing requirements leading to high information...

This paper presents a model to analyze the consequences of competition in order-flow between a profit maximizing stock exchange and an alternative trading platform on the decisions concerning trading fees and listing requirements. Listing requirements, set by the exchange, provide public...

The model developed in this paper shows that differences in incentives of firms to list can have an impact on the decision of exchanges concerning the level of listing requirements they set, and on the gains obtained by firms when they list on an exchange with stringent listing requirements....

I develop a multi-period trading model to analyze how a fundamental trader adjusts his trading strategies and information production decisions to the existence of high frequency trading (HFT). I show that these decisions differ strongly depending on the type of information that the HFT can...

The emergence of new trading platforms has intensified order fragmentation. Yet, little is known on how this phenomenon affects the behavior of profit maximizing exchanges. I show that fragmentation may allow competing exchanges to retain market power. When order splitting is beneficial for...

Merely out of fear for future liquidity shocks, traders may run on financial markets. We show this coordination failure could be overcome by applying circuit breakers (which curb excessive trading). However, the common-practice circuit breakers fall short of their potential and could even damage...

La théorie enracinée a été initialement développée pour proposer une alternative aux méthodes hypothético-déductives, qui formaient le courant majeur de la sociologie des années 1960, en visant à créer de nouvelles connaissances en se fondant sur les pratiques sociales. Face à...
