RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Pooling Trades in a Quantitative Investment Process JF The Journal of Portfolio Management FD Institutional Investor Journals SP 33 OP 43 DO 10.3905/jpm.2006.644191 VO 32 IS 4 A1 Colm O'Cinneide A1 Bernd Scherer A1 Xiaodong Xu YR 2006 UL https://pm-research.com/content/32/4/33.abstract AB Trading for several clients or accounts at the same time involves two challenges, one technical and one philosophical. The technical challenge is to take account of the market impact of aggregate trading in forming each client's individual portfolio. The philosophical challenge is to replace the traditional goal of maximizing utility for a single client with the goal of ensuring that all clients are treated fairly in the pursuit of their collective good. These challenges require a model of an efficient market for liquidity, which allows multi-account optimization—to ensure fairness, based on the principle that efficient markets are fair.TOPICS: Equity portfolio management, portfolio management/multi-asset allocation, security analysis and valuation
