FX Global Code vs Non-Code execution quality comparison
Quantitive Research Report
Quality of execution comparison between FX Global Code signatory and Non-Code signatory liquidity providers across Euronext FX
November 2022
Following our decision to default taker pools to Code signatory LPs with the option for takers to opt-out effective 1 January 2023, this new publication compares the quality of execution between Code and Non-Code signatories. The paper prompts takers to question: Should I retain Non-Code signatories in my liquidity pool? What will be the impact on my liquidity pool? Is there value in keeping Non-Code signatories for certain groups of currency pairs (G10 vs EM)?

From better Markouts to better passive execution prices on Primary Markets compared to MTFs
October 2022
Following the last paper on Markouts released early 2022, this new publication clarifies the link between Markouts and tangible trading prices. How to objectively assess the outcome of a passive trade on a given venue? Are average passive prices more attractive on Primary Markets versus MTFs? Do passive trades on MTFs take place at a worse market timing compared to Primary? Do worse Markouts and Market timing lead to worse passive VWAP prices on Primary Markets versus MTFs?

Better trading at the close thanks to market impact models
Quantitive Research Report
In 2020, closing auctions market share represented more than 20% of European consolidated volumes. Surprisingly, almost no publicly available market impact model on closing auctions is available, although the continuous market impact has been extensively studied. As a market operator we share with all market participants the findings of our unique dataset.
Euronext Market Insights webinar
During this 2nd Euronext Market Insights Webinar, we focused on Quantitative answers to key questions on trading at the closing auction on Euronext Equity:
- Are closing auctions a cheaper way to trade large orders compared to continuous trading?
- Is earlier sending of Market Orders beneficial to reduce the market impact on close?
- Is the internalisation of On Close Market Orders detrimental to auction volatility?

BoB versus Apex
No free lunch - trading on Apex more costly than on Best of Book
- Complementing our first paper on VBBO Trading (July 2020), we analysed the overall costs of trading on Equiduct’s Apex vs on Euronext’s Best of Book (BoB)
- The paper considers all trades on Apex and Best of Book from December 2019 to April 2020 on the same stock universe, then computes the net price improvement of each trade using QuantHouse European Best Bid and Offer (EBBO) at the same microsecond
- Found out how BoB price improvements, net of fees, outperform Apex improvements by +1.36 bps by simple average and by 2.47 bps when using turnover weighted average
- Understand therefore how Euronext’s BoB model outperforms Equiduct’s Apex zero fee model
