How will the industrial structure of trading places for financial securities evolve in the future? This question is not only topical after Brexit but addresses a general concern. Will competition under economies of scale naturally lead to concentration of trading at one dominant exchange, or will the market with the help of electronic technology fragment into many smaller spokes trading centers? How will that structure affect price discovery and transactions costs?
The geographical location of trading will depend on the interaction of centrifugal and centripetal forces. These forces are affected by local information, liquidity and market depth, but also by communication technologies as well as regulation. In fact, many argue that because of the technological advances regulations has become key in determining the industrial structure of trading.
Hence the purpose of this seminar is to scrutinize the role of regulation and discuss the long-term structural consequences of the regulation currently implemented in the European market. The US experience of implementing NMS-regulation will be particularly helpful in assessing likely consequences and avoiding potential pitfalls.
