Liquidity, Volume and Price Efficiency: The impact of order vs. Quote Driven TradingKatya MalinovaUniversity of Toronto Andreas ParkUniversity of Toronto - Department of Economics July 27, 2012 Journal of Financial Markets, Forthcoming Abstract: As equity trading becomes predominantly electronic, is there still value to a traditional, intermediated dealer system? We address this question by comparing the impact of the organization of trading on volume, liquidity, and price efficiency in a quote-driven dealer market and in an order-driven limit order book. Small order price impacts are higher and large order price impacts are lower in a dealer market. Prices are more efficient in the limit order book, except when the level of informed trading is high. Volume is higher in a limit order market, making this system most attractive for trading venues.
