Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference article in proceedingsScientific

In this survey, I review the theoretical foundations and empirical evidence on the effects—both positive and negative—of requiring traders to post higher margins. The results reviewed here are interesting on their own and shed light on the roles played by investors’ leverage in financial markets.
