The Microstructure of Financial Markets（ISBN=） 英文原版

　　Coverage of a dynamic area of research combining both the
theory and empirics of market microstructure ? Introduces students
to the most important models and shows how they can be applied ?
Includes numerous exercises and solutions with downloadable data to
allow hands-on application

The analysis of the microstructure of financial markets has been
one of the most important areas of research in finance and has
allowed scholars and practitioners alike to have a much more
sophisticated understanding of the dynamics of price formation in
financial markets. Frank de Jong and Barbara Rindi provide an
integrated graduate level textbook treatment of the theory and
empirics of the subject, starting with a detailed de*ion of
the trading systems on stock exchanges and other markets and then
turning to economic theory and asset pricing models. Special
attention is paid to models explaining transaction costs, with a
treatment of the measurement of these costs and the implications
for the return on investment. The final chapters review recent
developments in the academic literature. End-of-chapter exercises
and downloadable data from the book’s companion website provide
opportunities to revise and apply models developed in the text.

　　Frank de Jong is Professor of Financial Markets and Risk
Management at Tilburg University. He is also a senior research
fellow and program coordinator at Netspar, an independent network
for research and education in the field of pensions, aging and
retirement. Barbara Rindi is Associate Professor of Economics at
Bocconi University in Milan. She is also a researcher for for the
Paolo Baffi Centre for Monetary and Financial Economics.

　　’Thoughtful, clear and rigorous, this book offers an in-depth
unified treatment of market microstructure, combining de*ion
of institutions with presentation of analytical models along with
empirical methods and results. This comprehensive survey ranges
from seminal contributions to latest research. It will be a
reference not just for advanced graduate courses in finance and
economics but also for scholars and industry practitioners. This is
the book we have long needed in order to understand and master the
advances in research and trading innovations that have taken place
over the last thirty years.’ Bruno Biais, Toulouse University
‘Frank de Jong and Barbara Rindi present a clear and accessible
discussion of market microstructure. They combine a careful
explanation of institutional details together with a clear
exposition of theoretical models in a manner that will prove very
useful to both Ph.D. level students and MBA level students. Their
book is particularly timely because market microstructure, like
options pricing, has rapidly moved from the research domain of
professors into the real world, where competition among exchanges,
measurement of transactions costs, and algorithmic trading all
require combining the theory of market microstructure with an
understanding of how it works in practice.’ Albert S. Kyle, Smith
