講題：Liquidity and Financial Markets: Key Issues and Recent Developments
講者：Professor Giorgio Valente (University of Essex)

*講題介紹*
Market microstructure is the study of the processes and outcomes of exchanging assets under explicit trading rules. Several studies in this area have proposed and investigated various important concepts from theoretical and empirical perspectives. Among those concepts, liquidity has been under the scrutiny of the academic community during the past 20 years. However, only after the recent 2007-2009 financial crisis, financial economists and policy makers have recognized the importance of liquidity for the correct functioning of financial markets. This lecture provides with an overview of the recent studies on financial markets’ liquidity and the major implications for asset prices, market efficiency and the macroeconomy (business cycle and monetary policy).
