  Staff Working Paper 2020-20 Corey Garriott, Ryan Riordan

• High-Frequency Trading and Institutional Trading Costs

  Staff Working Paper 2018-8 Marie Chen, Corey Garriott

  Using data on Canadian bond futures, we examine how high-frequency traders (HFTs) interact with institutions building large positions.

• High-Frequency Trading Competition

  Staff Working Paper 2014-19 Jonathan Brogaard, Corey Garriott, Anna Pomeranets
