In this paper we empirically investigate the impact of the trading system on the integration of markets. Our data set consists of| intraday quotes of screen traded stock index futures and two stock index price series. One index series results from stock prices determined in a floor trading system while the other is based on screen traded stocks. Two main results are obtained: First, futures and spot prices move together more closely when both instruments are screen traded. Second, the observed discrepancy in market integration cannot be attributed to differences in arbitrage trading.
