Liquidity Provision Rebates
Liquidity Provision Rebates are financial incentives paid by an exchange or decentralized protocol to market makers who provide liquidity to the order book. By submitting limit orders that stay on the book, these participants are categorized as makers.
Exchanges often charge a small fee to those who take liquidity, known as takers, and redistribute a portion of that fee to the makers as a rebate. This mechanism compensates market makers for the risks they take, such as holding inventory that might depreciate in value.
It encourages a higher volume of limit orders, which in turn reduces slippage for all users. This is a core tool in Market Microstructure to ensure deep and liquid markets.
