Inside the Over-the-Counter Market in the UK
This book provides the first comprehensive treatment of the over-the-counter market in the United Kingdom, beginning with its inception in the early 1970s and tracing its development to the present day. Armed with the full understanding of the market provided by this valuable handbook, investors will find that the OTC offers them tremendous opportunities. Of particular interest to them, therefore, will be the clear and intelligible examination of the workings of the market, which gives information on risk assessment, procedures for dealing, costs of buying and selling shares, regulation, and the influence of the Business Expansion Scheme on the OTC. The dangers for investors on the OTC are not denied, however. The book concludes with a look at the reasons for the phenomenal sucess of the OTC in the United States and predicts a similarly bright future for the OTC in the United Kingdom if it is allowed to develop along similar lines.
Essays on Over-the-counter Markets
This dissertation consists of three essays studying on over-the-counter trading (OTC henceforth). In Chapter 1, I model the formation of the inter-dealer network in an OTC market, and study how the network affects prices and volumes in the market. The model explains the empirically observed core-periphery network with dealers' capacity of providing liquidity. Specifically, dealers with large capacity comprise the core of the network, connecting them to all other dealers, while dealers who have small capacity operate at the periphery. In addition, my model matches the empirical finding on the negative relation between markups and order sizes. Furthermore, I show that there may be structural b...

The Economics of Over-The-Counter Markets
An essential primer on an important yet understudied type of financial market Many of the largest financial markets in the world do not organize trade through an exchange but rather operate within a decentralized or over-the-counter (OTC) structure. Understanding how these markets work has become increasingly important in recent years, as illiquidity in certain OTC markets has appeared as the first signs of trouble--if not the cause itself--of the past two financial crises. However, standard models of financial markets are not suitable for studying the causes of illiquidity in OTC markets, nor the optimal policy response. The Economics of Over-the-Counter Markets proposes a unified search-th...

This book offers a concise introduction to OTC markets by explaining key conceptual issues and modeling techniques, and by providing readers with a foundation for more advanced subjects in this field.
Private Information in Over-the-Counter Markets
We study trading in over-the-counter (OTC) markets where agents have heterogeneous and private valuations for assets. We develop a quantitative model in which assets are issued through a primary market and then traded in a secondary OTC market. Then we use data on the US municipal bond market to calibrate the model. We find that the effects of private information are large, reducing asset supply by 20%, trade volume by 80%, and aggregate welfare by 8%. Using the model, we identify two channels through which the information friction harms the economy. First, the distribution of the existing stock of assets is inefficient because some of the efficient trades, which should occur, do not. Second, the total stock of assets is inefficiently low because resale value and liquidity go down due to the information friction. We investigate how much a simple tax/subsidy scheme that spurs issuance of new assets can help mitigate the cost associated with private information and find that it lowers the welfare cost from 8% to approximately 1%.
