Risk-averse insider trading in multi-asset sequential auction markets

Author

Listed:
  • Vitale, Paolo

Abstract

We extend Kyle’s (1985) analysis of sequential auction markets to the case in which a risk-averse insider possesses private information on several risky assets. The insider trades aggressively and so that the price impact of order flow is symmetric across assets.
