Bayesian Trading Cost Analysis and Ranking of Broker Algorithms
We present a formulation of the transaction cost analysis (TCA) in the Bayesian framework for the primary purpose of comparing broker algorithms using standardized benchmarks. Our formulation allows effective calculation of the expected value of trading benchmarks with only a finite sample of data relevant to practical applications. We discuss the nature of distribution of implementation shortfall, volume-weighted average price, participation-weighted price and short-term reversion benchmarks. Our model takes into account fat tails, skewness of the distributions and heteroscedasticity of benchmarks. The proposed framework allows the use of hierarchical models to transfer approximate knowledge from a large aggregated sample of observations to a smaller sample of a particular algorithm.

Strategic Learning and Trading in Broker-Mediated Markets
We study strategic interactions in a broker-mediated market. A broker provides liquidity to an informed trader and to noise traders while managing inventory in the lit market. The broker and the informed trader maximise …
Liquidity Competition Between Brokers and an Informed Trader
We study a multi-agent setting in which brokers transact with an informed trader. Through a sequential Stackelberg-type game, brokers manage trading costs and adverse selection with an informed trader. In particular, sup…
Optimizing Broker Performance Evaluation through Intraday Modeling of Execution Cost
Minimizing execution costs for large orders is a fundamental challenge in finance. Firms often depend on brokers to manage their trades due to limited internal resources for optimizing trading strategies. This paper pres…
