 (1 Rating)
SEC and CFTC reports estimate that High Frequency strategies are responsible for about 60% of all transactions on U.S.... More > shares. In Europe, this percentage is around 40% and growing. High Frequency strategies are those characterized by a brief holding period, which can range from a split second to a few hours. This enables traders to place numerous independent bets per day on an instrument or portfolio, profiting from the multiplicative effect postulated by the Fundamental Law of Active Management. The goal is to exploit inefficiencies derived from the market’s microstructure (rigidities, agents’ idiosyncrasies, asymmetric information, etc.). The generalization of electronic markets and ubiquitous automation of financial transactions has rendered many established models and theories obsolete. The objective of this work is to present a new scientific framework for the study of some of the most relevant questions concerning High Frequency. < Less

In this original and insightful work, Bruce W. Marcus describes the evolutionary process from the traditional, rigid,... More > top-down law and accounting firms of the the 20th century to today’s contemporary, client-oriented and competitive firms. It began in 1977 with a U.S. Supreme Court striking down the ethical restraints barring frank promotional activities. By introducing the concept of active competition, and adapting traditional marketing activities to professional firms, it led to reshaping accounting, legal and marketing practices to the unique and distinctive needs of the changing professional services market.

It is history as a guide to the future. “Professional Services Marketing 3.0” describes the evolutionary process from 1977 (Professional Services Marketing 1.0) as a guide to where marketing is now (Professional Services Marketing 2.0), to where it’s going (“Professional Services Marketing 3.0”), and, significantly, how to survive and thrive in the marketing needs of the future. < Less
