| Side A | Side B | ||
| 1 |
To evaluate the quality of a market, one should examine its
|
liquidity,
transparency, and assurity of completion.
|
|
| 2 |
A liquid market has
|
small bid-ask spreads, market depth, and
resilience.
|
|
| 3 |
If a market has small spreads, traders are apt to
|
trade more often.
|
|
| 4 |
Market depth allows larger orders to trade without
|
affecting security prices.
|
|
| 5 |
A
market is resilient if asset prices
|
stay close to their intrinsic values, and
deviations from intrinsic value are quickly minimized.
|
|
| 6 |
In a transparent market, investors can easily and quickly obtain
|
pre-trade and post-trade information.
|
|
| 7 |
If a market is not transparent, investors
|
lose faith in the market and decrease their trading activities.
|
|
| 8 |
When markets have assurity of completion, investors can be confident
that
|
the counterparty will uphold their side of the trade agreement.
|
|
| 9 |
To
facilitate this, brokers and clearing bodies may provide
|
guarantees to both
sides of the trade.
