Informed trading, market efficiency and volatility
We establish relationships that have proved difficult to capture in financial markets, between informed trading, efficiency and volatility. We examine the efficiency and volatility of market prices in 6058 parallel horserace betting exchange and bookmaker markets (1.8 million price points). We find that informed trading is associated with increased efficiency and volatility

We examine the efficiency and volatility of market prices in 6058 parallel horserace betting exchange and bookmaker markets (1.8 million price points). We find that informed trading is associated with increased efficiency and volatility
