Agent-Based Model for Order Routing and Financial Market Integration

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing ((AISC,volume 372))

Abstract

Agent-based modeling is alternative framework for providing explanations of the behavior of financial markets. In this paper, we consider a simple agent-based model designed to understand the effects of smart order routing in a multi-market setting. The goal is to understand how the prevalence of smart order routing results in different levels of market integration. We find that only a small percentage of smart order routing results in a remarkable level of market integration.
