Optimal Make-Take Fees for Market Making Regulation

Abstract: We address the mechanism design problem of an exchange setting suitable maketake fees to attract liquidity on its platform. Using a principal-agent approach, we provide the optimal compensation scheme of a market maker in quasi-explicit form. This contract depends essentially on the market maker inventory trajectory and on the volatility of the asset. We also provide the optimal quotes that should be displayed by the market maker. The simplicity of our formulas allows us to analyze in details the effects of op… Show more

“…The second feature of our paper is that it is the first one to study the relative importance of the different aspects of contract design between DMMs and exchanges, distinguishing be-tween positive and negative incentives. While several studies exist on the role of maker/taker fees in encouraging liquidity provision (e.g., Colliard and Foucault (2012), Malinova and Park (2015), Clapham, Gomber, Lausen, and Panz (2017), Cardella, Hao, and Kalcheva (2017), Black (2018), El Euch, Mastrolia, Rosenbaum, andTouzi (2018), and Lin, Swan, and Harris (2018)), most of them focus on the case in which such fees are applied uniformly to all market participants, across all stocks rather than specifically to DMMs to incentivize their liquidity provision. In a closely-related recent paper on this issue, Bessembinder, Hao, and Zheng (2019) study the effect of both making/taking fees that are specific to DMMs and requirements of DMMs.…”

“…The recent work of [14] proposes a make-take fees design, combining the Avellaneda-Stoikov [3] model and a Principal-Agent framework with drift control, 2 to increase market liquidity on a single asset. In their formulation, the exchange offers a contract, resulting from a Stackelberg equilibrium between the market maker and the exchange, to the market maker in order to decrease the bid-ask spread offered on the asset.…”

“…The size of the spread is also one of the main components of traders transaction costs. A related work by El Euch et al [7], proposed a model for an exchange (or a regulator) who is aiming to attract liquidity to the market. The exchange was looking for the best make-take fees policy to offer to market-makers in order to maximise its utility.…”
