   Abstract

This paper proposes a structural time-series model for the intraday price dynamics on fragmented financial markets. We generalize the structural model of Hasbrouck (1993) to a multivariate setting. We discuss identification issues and propose a new measure for the contribution of each market to price discovery related to the Hasbrouck (1995) information shares. We apply the model to two sets of Nasdaq dealer quotes.

KEYWORDS: High-frequency data, microstructure, structural time-series models


We would like to thank Bart Frijns, Bruce Lehmann, and seminar participants at University of Amsterdam, Bilgi University (Istanbul), Stockholm School of Economics, University of Uppsala, and Sveriges Riksbanken for helpful comments on an earlier draft. As always, all errors are our own.
