世界最大的高频交易公司之一Virtu Financial Inc.，正在试图进入中国市场。 Virtu首席执行官Doug Cifu表示，该公司进军中国的项目尚在早期阶段。他指出，拥有Virtu 10%股权的新加坡国有投资公司Temasek Holdings，正在为Virtu在中国寻找潜在的当地合作伙伴。Virtu也在探索在中国交易商品和货币的可能性。 彭博社报道，周三，Cifu在与分析师讨论第一季度财报的电话会议上指出，“我们将和当地最好的伙伴合作，进入中国市场。”他同时表示，“我们还没有做任何交易。当然，我们的初步讨论已取得显著进展，并开始商议进入中国市场的架构搭建。” Cifu称，进入中国不会花费很高成本。“这是我们商业模式的美妙之处，我们不需要建立办事处，也不需要聘请30或40位员工。”他指出，“在新的市场、资产类别和地域，我们都很容易扩大业务规模，而不需要显著增加支出。”
本来想在 https://scholar.google.com/ 找 Virtu Financial Santa Cruz Greg Laughlin 试了一下找不到。 这个估计不是正经论文，而是上市宣传之类的东西。 然后在这里 http://www.valuewalk.com/2014/11/high-frequency-traders-virtu/ High-Frequency Traders Literally Can't Lose: New Research You might well ask, "How can this be?", and the answer is statistics. As Greg Laughlin, professor of astrophysics at the University of California at Santa Cruz, points out, even if you only win 51% of your trades, if you make enough trades you are statistically certain to make profits. And, yes, Virtu did make a lot of trades. Laughlin calculates that Virtu traded around 160 million shares a day during the period, close to 3% of the total daily volume in all U.S. equity markets, as first reported by Bradley Hope of the Wall Street Journal. Laughlin also noted that trading volumes were somewhat lower during the period described in Virtu's SEC filings, and so on higher volume days, Virtu's trading would have represented more than 5% of the total US equity market. 找到一个链接 http://online.wsj.com/public/resources/documents/VirtuOverview.pdf 需要翻墙，自己翻吧 或者直接联系作者索取 http://www.ucolick.org/~laugh/ Greg Laughlin -- UCSC Faculty Home Page https://www.linkedin.com/pub/greg-laughlin/b/108/461 Greg Laughlin | 领英
