“High Frequency Trading in Financial Markets”

PhD researcher Mathijs Giltjes challenges financial regulation expert Piebe Teeboom – Secretary General of FIA European Principal Traders Association (FIA EPTA) - on several issues relating to high frequency trading in financial markets. What is high frequency trading and what role does it play in modern financial markets? Can high frequency trading increase risks for market manipulation or insider dealing in some cases? Is further regulation needed? Mathijs puts these questions (arising out of his PhD research) to Piebe, and is met with some well-argued responses.
