Cooperative Transaction Cost Mitigation

A distributed method for coordinating the trades of multiple portfolio managers so that a firm can reduce transaction costs while preserving the separation of their individual optimization problems.

Current state

The first arXiv version presents the protocol, establishes convergence to the joint optimum under its convex model, and studies the savings obtained after a small number of adjustment rounds. The accompanying codebase reproduces the manuscript’s numerical results.
