Regulation
MiFID II
• Markets in Financial Instruments Directive 2
   o In effect from 3 Jan 2018

• Fund managers must explicitly pay for research
  separately from trading fees
   o Arguably increases transparency by hurts smaller firms

• Much stricter “Best Execution” rules to reassure traders
  that they have got a good price
   o But volume of reporting is very large!

• Block Trading

                                                              20
Block Trading
• How does a big institution trade a large block of shares
  without obtaining a damaging price?
   o Been a major regulatory question for decades

• London used to be the centre of institutional trading
  with its “upstairs market” and trade reporting delays
• Arrival of electronic platforms made this untenable
   o Either large trades are automatically cut up
   o Or trade off-exchange in “dark pools”

• Dark Pools
   o Dark Pools share was 2% in 2010 and 9% in 2016
   o The LSE’s own dark pool is Turquoise-Plato executed £550m in
     July 2016 and £1.75bn in Feb 2017
                                                                    21
Block Trades
• MiFID forces reporting even in dark-pools
   o “Double cap” to prevent reliance on off-exchange (If more than
     4% of trading in any stock on a dark-pool, or 8% across pools,
     then trade off exchange is prohibited for 6 months

                % of trading above 8% on Dark-Pools
    STOXX 50                   45

      CAC 40                        49

       MDAX                              57

        ISEQ                                       73

     FTSE 250                                            83

     FTSE 100                                                 95

Block Trades
• Regulatory arbitrage already led to “innovation” EG
   o “Periodic Auctions” in which orders are given at “indicative”
     prices and are matched by volume and executed at “best” price
       • Since the bid price IS public, this is not a dark pool (even
         though executed price isn’t)
       • Periodic may be “many times per second”
   o “Indication of Interest” platform allows pre-trade matching but
     execution is then public.

                                                                        23
Equity trade size shrinking
• In FTSE 100 stocks the average trade size
   o in 2002 it was £60,000
   o in 2012 it was £6,500
   o In 2017 it is   £4,750

• Consequence of High Frequency Trading (HFT) provision
  of market liquidity versus traditional OTC dealer
  provision
• AND difficulty of executing block trades

                                                          24
High Frequency
• Traders realise that
   o “cutting up” big trades gains value
   o Very quick trading is itself profitable
   o Trades now execute 1/100,000 seconds

• Trades executed direct to exchange
   o Regulation cannot keep up
   o “Flash Crash”

• Attempts to control it by trading limits
   o Resisted by those seeking “fair” profits from exploiting
     innovative technology

• 50% of US trading is High Speed

                                                                25

                    Actual   Theoretical Minimum

• Is it worth it?
   o Cost of connection between Illinois-NewJersey is $2m/annum

                                                                  26
Why is this necessary
• Is this:
   o   Good Business
   o   Pointless
   o   A rip-off
   o   Damaging to the market
   o   A cause for regulatory concern

• Is it insider trading
   o Who owns the order flow?

• Last year’s news – “the market has peaked and focus is
  now on strategy not speed”

                                                           27
Is this new
• Rothschild made their money with pigeons at Waterloo
• 2017 it is all in Basildon and Slough

                                                         28
Technology
Examples
• Trader fined £37,000 for using WhatsApp at work
   o DB has banned apps from work phones
   o GS has capped private phone bills after people switched to own
     phone use!

• Blockchain (core of bitcoin) being tried to settle oil
  trading to avoid costs and delay of the traditional
  contracts/letters of credit/inspection regime
• Quantopian – crowdsourced algorithmic trading hedge
  fund

                                                                      30
On the other hand
• The London Metals Exchange is the largest market in
  metals
   o Still open outcry
   o “unusual” rules
   o Bums on seats

• New premises
  in 2016

• Plenty of phone/online trading but ring price is key
• Established above a hat shop in Lombard Court in 1877.
                                                           31
Stephen Ross
• Died 2017
• “Arbitrage Pricing”
    o Basis for much financial
      innovation
    o Equity / hedge funds
    o Option pricing

• ”If I can copy it, I can value it”

                                       32
LIBOR / Behaviour

                    33
Corruption: Libor
• London Inter Bank Offer Rate
   o Used as the “reference” interest rate for 100 years
   o Set by “agreement”

• Was the market rigged?
• Settlements:
   o   ICAP        $87m
   o   Barclays  $450m
   o   RBS       $615m
   o   Rabobank $1,000m
   o   UBS      $1,500m

• So how much did they make from this?
   o And for how long
                                                           34
LIBOR
• Latest twist is allegation that Bank of England pressured
  Barclays (and others) to rig LIBOR
• Fines to date £7.5bn
   o Barclays fined £350m; Bob Diamond resigned; 4 traders
     imprisoned

• ICE (which owns Liffe) also owns LIBOR
   o Bought for £1 from BBA after scandal
   o New measure based on actual trade information
      • 4.5million data points per day
      • Algorithm is based on trading which is based on algorithms!
      • CEO “Need humans when the machine goes nuts”

                                                                      35
The Professionals
• Bob Diamond
• “One of the most thoughtful and
   intelligent bankers”
• Resigned (again) after LIBOR scandal
• Rebuilding reputation:
  “incredible entrepreneurial opportunity”
  to invest in financial companies competing
  with so-called systemically important banks
  that are facing increasing scrutiny from regulators.”
• Now owns historic London stockbroker Panmure-Gordon
  which is now very active on AIM.
