Course Syllabus

Abstract

This course covers some of the materials on the microstructure theory of financial markets developed over the last three decades. Theoretical Market Microstructure is intended to develop economic models of financial markets within a “microscopic” approach when one explicitly takes into account a particular market design and types of agents involved in a trading process. One application of the Market Microstructure models is analysis of the impact of market organizational structure on various important market characteristics, such as price efficiency, transaction costs, liquidity, etc., and to construct quantitative indicators of market quality. The main part of the course is based on original academic research papers on Market Microstructure theory. The emphasis is on the finance models that allow for analytic solutions (analytically tractable.) The course material is intended to be technically self-consistent, which means that we review all necessary background mathematical tools. The primary goal is to develop the ability of applying quantitative models and making (correct) calculations to analyze specific problems, rather than on proving general theorems in a rigorous way. In other words, the tilt is towards a practical theory course. This course is quantitative and relies on technical skills developed throughout the course. The prerequisite for this class are: Graduate standing, and some basic course on Financial Economics, e.g. based on Huang and Litzenberger, Foundations for Financial Economics (HL). Although the course materials are self-contained, the students are recommended to carefully read the HL before taking the course.
