Overview Of Derivatives Markets
• A derivative instrument is a contract whose value derives from some underlying asset price, reference rate or index – such as a stock, bond, currency, or a commodity.
• The contract must also specify a principal, or notional amount, defined in terms of currency, shares, bushels, or some other unit.
• Movements in the value of the derivative depend on the notional and the underlying price or index.

Forward Contracts
• The most common transaction in financial instruments are spot transactions, that is, for physical delivery as soon as practical (perhaps in two business days or in a week).
• Historically, grain farmers went to a centralized location to meet buyers for their product. As market developed, the farmers realized that it would be beneficial to trade for delivery at some future date. This allowed them to hedge out price fluctuations for the sale of their anticipated production.
• This gave rise to forward contracts, which are private agreements to exchange a given asset against cash (or sometimes another asset) at a fixed point in the future. The terms of the contract are the quantity (number of units or shares), date, and price at which the exchange will be done.

Forward Contracts
• Forwards are private agreements ...
• To buy or sell an asset
• At a fixed point in the future
• The terms of the contract are the quantity (number of units or shares), date, and price at which the exchange will be done.
• USDINR is mostly traded as a forward (NDF)

Options
Call • Right but not the obligation to buy commodity • At or before a certain time in future (Expiration Date or
Maturity) • For a certain price (called the Strike price) agreed today • Similar to Long forward except for no obligation to fulfill
contract. E.g., Call Option on Crude oil is similar to crude oil forward
• If spot oil price falls to $98 at maturity, Long trader would lose $2m. Call option owner can choose not to buy at $100 as contracted earlier
• Possibility of walking away from unfavourable outcome valuable means that option cannot be free

Pay off of Call and Put
• Call : MAX ( Stock Price- Strike, 0)
• Put: MAX ( Strike -Stock Price, 0)
• Intrinsic Value
• Time Value
• Option Value = Intrinsic Value + Time Value.
• European option – can only be exercised on maturity date itself
• American option – can be exercised any time up to maturity date

Vega or Kappa
If the Vega is high in absolute terms, the option’s value is very sensitive to small changes in volatility. If the Vega is low in absolute terms, changes in volatility do not have a significant impact on the value of the option.
