Abstract
The combined research leads to a more comprehensive understanding of market behavior. We show that implied transactions costs do exist, at times are large, and are not easy to estimate, but careful examination of the data and selection of procedures can shed light on their magnitude and patterns of behavior. Accurately measured and understood transaction costs can then be used by traders, exchanges, researchers, and policy makers to develop a better understanding of markets and to make appropriate decisions.
