摘要
This study examines the effects of technological changes on liquidity of stock markets. Utilizing daily data of 361 stocks from 10 emerging market exchanges, namely Colombia, Indonesia, Johannesburg, Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, Russia, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Thailand, a panel data regression analysis shows that technological upgrade decreases the bid-ask spread and increases trading activity. In other words, launching a more sophisticated trading platform contributes to the overall liquidity of the market. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
