1 Securities Trading: Principles and Procedures Chapter 17 Pricing, fees, and rebates How do markets generate revenue? 1 Overview: customers, brokers, and exchanges Transaction cost analysis takes the customer s viewpoint. What did that trade cost me? Pricing (mostly) takes the exchange s viewpoint. What should we charge for? How much? Brokers in the middle Pass orders to exchanges; Pass exchange fees and charges back on to customers. Topics Traditional pricing Maker-taker Taker-maker (inverted) Payment for order flow 2 1
2 Review: the products of an exchange Listings Low revenue, low cost, low return) Data (streaming bids, asks, trade prices, order book) High revenue, high fixed costs, low variable costs, high return Trading (services related to order handling and execution) High revenue, high costs, low margin. Very competitive. Value of information depends on trading volume. What can we charge for? How much? 3 Traditional pricing (floor markets) Customer Order Broker Order Exchange Commission Service fees Customer pay a standard commission. (Exchange) service fees included in the commission. No charge for an order unless the order is executed. This is still true. 4 2
3 Modern maker/taker pricing Liquidity rebate for limit orders Customer Order Broker Order Exchange Commission Access fee for marketable orders Incoming marketable orders pay access fee. Also called liquidity removal fee, taker fee. A resting limit order that is executed receives a liquidity rebate. Also called maker rebate
4 Example Jiro sends an order Sell 100 XYZ, limit to BZX. The order goes into the book. Kathy sends Buy 100 XYZ, limit to BZX This order executes against Jiro s order. Ignoring the taker fee and maker rebate: Kathy pays $5,000; Jiro receives $5,000. With the taker fee, Kathy pays $5, $ = $5, With the maker rebate, Jiro receives $5, $ = $5, Embedded problem 1 (answer at end of handout) The market in ABC is $20.10 bid; offered at $20.15; there are no hidden orders. Dana is alone at the offer, for 100 shares. Emma: Buy 100 XYZ, limit to BZX What happens? Who are the maker and taker? What are the maker and taker fees/rebates? What are the net amounts paid and received? 8 4
5 Embedded problem 2 (Answer at end of handout) The market in ABC is $20.10 bid; offered at $20.15; there are no hidden orders. Brian is alone at the bid, for 200 shares. Catherine: Sell 300 XYZ, limit to BZX What happens? Who are the maker and taker? What are the maker and taker fees/rebates? What are the net amounts paid and received? 9 Price distortion Suppose exchanges A and B are offering stock at $ A s access fee is zero. B s access fee is $ Someone buying at A pays $10.200; someone buying at B pays $ To determine who really has the best bid and offer, you have to net out access fees. 10 5
6 Notes on BATS price schedule Hidden limit orders receive a lower rebate. Displayed rebate is $0.0020; non-displayed is $ A displayed limit order that establishes a new NBB or NBO is called a setter. Setters receive $ (in addition to the usual $0.0020) Rebates are more generous for market makers. 11 Inverted pricing ( taker/maker pricing ) BATS operates exchanges Z and Y (BZX and BYX) Z has standard maker/taker pricing. Y has taker/maker pricing: 12 6
7 Taker/maker pricing example Jiro sends an order Sell 100 XYZ, limit to Y. The order goes into the book. Kathy sends Buy 100 XYZ, limit to Y This order executes against Jiro s order. Ignoring the taker rebate and maker fee, Kathy would pay $5,000; Jiro would receive $5,000. With the taker rebate, Kathy pays $5, $ = $4, With the maker fee, Jiro receives $5, $ = $4, Why? An example Suppose that Z and Y are both offering $50. Kathy: I want to lift the offer. Where should I send my order? On Y she receives a taker rebate she sends to BYX Now suppose that at the offer of $50: Z is posting 10,000 shares Y is posting 100 shares. Jiro: I want to post an offer: sell 100 shares limit 50. Where should I send it? Z: He ll receive $0.0030, but there are 10,000 shares ahead. Y: He ll pay $0.0018, but his order will be closer to the front of the book. Any Kathy who wants to buy at $50 will send her order to Y. 14 7
8 Tick size constraints Can Jiro get to the front of the line on BZX by offering at a slightly more aggressive price? Sell limit $50.00 $ = $ No. Sub-penny quotes aren t permitted (SEC Reg NMS Rule 612) Recall that trade prices can occur and be reported in subpenny increments. Taker/maker pricing provides a mechanism for partially getting around the sub-penny rule. 15 Payment for order flow Customer Order Broker Order Exchange Payment for order flow Dealer Internalization The NBBO in XYZ is bid, offered at A broker ( E-Trade ) has a customer order ( Buy 100 XYZ at the market.) The broker sends the customer order to the dealer ( G1 Execution Services ), who sells to the customer at $20.30 G1 sends to the E-Trade about ( less than ) $
9 The economic forces It is profitable to make retail markets. Retail traders are (mostly) uninformed. Making markets against (informed) proprietary traders is not profitable. Payment for order flow encourages brokers to send retail orders to a dealer. Brokers don t usually rebate the payments directly to the customers. They argue that brokerage is a competitive industry, and customers benefit indirectly from lower overall commissions. 17 Broker s obligations A broker has a agency duty to the customer. The broker must act as an agent for the customer, and solely in the customer s interest. An agency duty is legally weaker than a fiduciary duty. Payment for order flow has been criticized as being inconsistent with this duty. Brokers must check their customers executions to ensure that their order-routing practices don t hurt the terms of these executions (such as worse prices, longer delays). 18 9
10 The SEC position Payment for order flow is legal as long as it is disclosed. Rule 606 Entering brokers must document their order-routing practices (including payments for order flow) on their web sites. How many orders did you get? Where did you send them? What inducements did you receive?
11 Footnotes 21 At Senate Hearings, Brokerage Firms Called Out for Conflicts TD Ameritrade, a brokerage firm that handles vast numbers of stock trades for average investors, promises to execute those orders on the best possible terms. But in practice, TD Ameritrade routes a large number of the customer orders to the exchanges that pay it the most, Steven Quirk, an executive at the firm, said at a Senate hearing on Tuesday. Your subjective judgment as to which market provided best execution for tens of millions of customer orders a year allowed you to route all of the orders to the market that paid you the most, [Senator Carl] Levin said. I find that to be a frankly pretty incredible coincidence. William Alden, New York Times, June 17,
12 Embedded problem 1 Answer The market in ABC is $20.10 bid; offered at $20.15; there are no hidden orders. Dana is alone at the offer, for 100 shares. Emma: Buy 100 XYZ, limit to BZX What happens? Who are the maker and taker? What are the maker and taker fees/rebates? What are the net amounts paid and received? Answers There is an execution for 100 shares at $ Dana is the maker; Emma is the taker. The total taker fee is 100 $ = $0.30; the maker rebate is 100 $ = $0.20 Emma pays 100 $ $0.30 = $2, $0.30 = $2, Dana receives 100 $ $0.20 = $2, Embedded problem 2 Answer The market in ABC is $20.10 bid; offered at $20.15; there are no hidden orders. Brian is alone at the bid, for 200 shares. Catherine: Sell 300 XYZ, limit to BZX What happens? Who are the maker and taker? What are the maker and taker fees/rebates? What are the net amounts paid and received? Answer There is an execution for 200 shares at $ Brian is the maker; Catherine is the taker. The total taker amount is 200 $ = $0.60; the maker amount is 200 $ = $0.40 Brian pays 200 $20.10 $0.60 = $4, $0.40 = $4, Catherine receives 200 $20.10 $0.60 = $4,
