Abstract

This study examines whether systematic liquidity risk is priced on the London Stock Exchange (LSE). We use the proportional quoted bid-ask spread, Amihud's (2002) market illiquidity ratio, and turnover rate as liquidity proxies. In contrast to the US studies, we do not find evidence that systematic liquidity risk is priced on the LSE.
