Recently, the continuous double auction, i.e. the trading mechanism used in the majority of the financial markets, is the subject of an extensive study. In the present paper, a model of the continuous double auction with the completely random flow of the limit orders is studied. The main result...

We suggest a model of (a thin) market at which the number of participants is random with Poisson distribution. We provide a formula for joint distribution of the market price and the traded volume. We derive an asymptotic distribution of the quantities. We find that, according to our model, with...

Recently, models of limit order markets, particularly those of the continuous double auction, are subject to an intense research. Due to their complexity, the models are regarded to be analytically intractable. In the present paper, nonetheless, a closed form result is derived: the conditional...

We assume a thin market with finite number of buyers and sellers, each agent having a single jump demand xor supply function (the jump is unit). Further, we assume that number of each agent's arrival is a Poisson distributed random variable. We describe the joint distribution of the market price...

In the paper, the asymptotic distribution of the equilibrium price in markets with the random demand and supply is described. Two special cases - the one with smooth demand and supply curves and the one with jump demand and supply curves - are studied. It is found that in both the cases the...

One of the goals of the European Commission in the energy sector is creating a single competitive European market. The decision to liberalise energy markets has far-reaching consequences not only for gas companies, but also for the rest of the real economy in view of the fact that natural gas is...

One of the biggest risks arising from financial operations is the risk of counterparty default, commonly known as a “credit risk”. Leaving unmanaged, the credit risk would, with a high probability, result in a crash of a bank. In our paper, we will focus on the credit risk quantification...
