Ritholtz Interview: Brad Katsuyama, IEX, High Frequency Trading (audio)

Masters in Business: Brad Katsuyama - This “Masters in Business” podcast features Brad Katsuyama of IEX, probably best known for his role as the lead character in Michael Lewis’s book, “Flash Boys: A Wall Street Revolt.”

Interviewed by Barry Ritholtz for Bloomberg View, Katsuyama describes how it became clear that something had changed in the market structure, but no one really knew what it was. He explains how he and his team eventually unraveled how algorithm-driven high frequency trading worked. Also covered are his appearance on “60 Minutes,” and his debate on CNBC with William O’Brien, former chief executive officer of the BATS Global Markets stock exchange.
