Liquidity enables investors and issuers to meet their requirements in capital markets, be it an investment, financing, or hedging, as well as reducing investment costs and the cost of capital. Through this, liquidity has a lasting and positive impact on economies. While liquidity across many products remains high in developed markets, many emerging markets suffer from significantly low levels of trading venue liquidity, effectively placing a constraint on economic and market development. We believe that exchanges, regulators, and capital market participants can take action to grow liquidity, improve the efficiency of trading, and better service issuers and investors in their markets. The indirect benefits to emerging market economies could be significant.

For this research Celent interviewed a broad range of firms including online brokerage firms, asset management firms, banks, and brokerage providers. The study focused on the self-directed market and in particular on the active investor customer category. This research note provides a summary of the main findings. Developments and Trends Celent highlights a number of key trends in the evolution of the online brokerage industry: Despite the economic downturn the financial services indus- try has faced in the past 18 to 24 months, investors are slowly regaining confidence in the markets and therefore increasing their trading activity. Daily average revenue trades (DARTs) at the major online brokerages have shown signs of recovery after a difficult market environment in 2009 and a slowing in DARTs between late 2008 and mid-2009, as shown in Figure 1.

    Electronic Trading in the Secondary Fixed Income Markets Treasury Borrowing Advisory Committee – Charge #1 Over recent years, technological advances have had a significant impact on the way assets are traded in fixed income markets. Specifically, with the rise in electronic trading, its associated participants and execution strategies have accounted for an increasing percentage of the traded volume in secondary fixed income markets. We would like the Committee to comment on the increase of High Frequency Trading (HFT) and Algorithmic Trading (AT) in fixed income markets, and specifically in the Treasury market.

  • Rule 15C3-5 Under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”)
    SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION 17 CFR PART 240 [Release No. 34-63241; File No. S7-03-10] RIN 3235-AK53 Risk Management Controls for Brokers or Dealers with Market Access AGENCY: Securities and Exchange Commission. ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: The Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission” or “SEC”) is adopting new Rule 15c3-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”). Rule 15c3-5 will require brokers or dealers with access to trading securities directly on an exchange or alternative trading system (“ATS”), including those providing sponsored or direct market access to customers or other persons, and broker-dealer operators of an ATS that provide access to trading securities directly on their ATS to a person other than a broker or dealer, to establish, document, and maintain a system of risk management controls and supervisory procedures that, among other things, are reasonably designed to (1) systematically limit the financial exposure of the broker or dealer that could arise as a result of market access, and (2) ensure compliance with all regulatory requirements that are applicable in connection with market access. The required financial risk management controls and supervisory procedures must be reasonably designed to prevent the entry of orders that exceed appropriate pre-set credit or capital thresholds, or that appear to be erroneous. The regulatory risk management controls and supervisory procedures must also be reasonably designed to prevent the entry of orders unless there has been compliance with all regulatory requirements that must be satisfied on a pre-order entry basis, prevent the entry of orders that the broker or dealer or customer is restricted from trading, restrict market access technology and systems to authorized persons, and assure appropriate surveillance personnel receive immediate post-trade execution reports.

  • The Essential Substructures' Preparation Assessment For
    International Journal of Management & Information Systems – Second Quarter 2010 Volume 14, Number 2 The Essential Infrastructure Preparation Assessment For Establishing An Electronic Stock Exchange In Iran Sayyed Mohsen Allameh, University of Isfahan, Iran Naser Jafari, University of Isfahan, Iran Sharif Shekarchizadeh Esfahani, University of Isfahan, Iran ABSTRACT Establishing an electronic stock exchange market can be a perfect example of new technologies and IT utilization in the stock market in Iran and thus it can pave the way and provide the opportunity for all walks of life to invest in the stock exchange market. The essential infrastructures’ preparation assessment for opening the electronic stock exchange in Iran helps us identify the essential infrastructures’ present status, specify the probable problems and challenges and prepare the grounds for its establishment. In this study at first, some information about electronic stock exchange marketing is presented, and then the preparation for the most important infrastructures is evaluated and finally the preparation ranking of each of these infrastructures’ components is discussed. The questionnaire of the research is of self administered questionnaire type with a reliability of 0.89 and a formal validity which was validated by professors and experts. In order to evaluate each of the hypothesis, the One - Sample T Test and for ranking the components, the Friedman test was used and it was revealed that the financial and banking (electronic banking), technical and security infrastructures were potential for setting up an electronic stock exchange market. In contrast, the telecommunication and connectivity, cultural, legal and civil infrastructures did not have such a potential. After all, the conclusion was drawn that the essential infrastructures are not present for setting up an electronic stock exchange market in Iran.
