Abstract
This paper proposes a two-stage sealed-bid model for the execution of portfolios. An asset manager auctions a portfolio of securities to a set of brokers who are unaware of the specific details about individual securities. We prove that our mechanism may reduce the costs of execution for the asset manager and may mitigate the “winner’s curse” for participating brokers
