Abstract:
In this paper, we review development course of the interbank market maker system and its relationship with the bond market liquidity. Then we investigate the influence factors of bid-ask spreads by a full market cycle including a bull market and a bear market, and make a comparative study on market behaviors of different types of market makers and their effects of stabilizing the market under different market trends. We find that the liquidity market-makers provide is insufficient in general, while market makers outperform trial market makers. From the perspective of stabilizing the market by market makers, only big-five banks play a certain role. The reason is that market lacks segmentation and the corresponding incentive measures, which refrain market-maker from earning a profit. Only rankings of market makers(reputation) can bring certain incentive for big state-owned banks. So the more important market makers treat profit, the lower willingness of market making.
