Emerging Markets Finance and Trade, 2015, vol. 51, issue 3, 647-657

Abstract: We investigate the price discovery mechanism among the single-stock futures (SSFs) and underlying stock markets in four emerging organized markets: India, Korea, Poland, and Russia. We find that the contribution of the SSF market to price discovery is, on average, 47 percent when utilizing daily data and 36 percent when utilizing intraday data. We further find that according to our cross-sectional analysis, spot market turnover, spot market capitalization, and age of the futures contract affect the role of SSF in the price discovery process.
