INTRODUCTION:
The liberalization of the Indian economy has ushered in an era of opportunities for the
Indian corporate sector. however, these opportunities are accomplished by challenges. The
corporate are now required to operate at global capacities to be able to reap the benefits of
economies of scale and be competitive. To operate at global capacities, huge investments are
called for and the main source of fund in the public at large. Therefore, the corporate now started
tapping the capital market in a big way. The response is also encouraging.
As the Indian nation integrates with world economy era, small tremors in the world
market starts affecting the Indian economy. As an example, interest rates have been south bound
in the world and the same has happened in the Indian market too. fixed income rates have fallen
drastically due to fall in the real income of people. To overcome this fall , investors have been
continuously seek to increase the yield of their of their investments. But, it is a time-tested fact
that, the yields on investment in equity shares are maximum, the accompanying risks are also
maximum. Therefore, it is absolutely essential that efforts should be made to reduce this factor.
The reduction of risk can be achieved through the process of hedging using
derivatives financial instrument.A hedge is any act that reduced the price risk of an existing
or anticipated position in the cash market. Basically, there are two type of hedging with futures
:long hedge and short hedge.
Financial derivatives are a kind of risk management instrument. A derivative's value
depends on the price changes in some more fundamental underlying assets. Many forms of
financial derivatives instruments exist in the financial markets. Among them, the three most
fundamental financial derivatives instruments are: forward contracts, futures, and options. If the
underlying assets are stocks, bonds, foreign exchange rates and commodities etc., then the
corresponding risk management instruments are: stock futures (options), bond futures (options),
currency futures (options) and commodity futures (options) etc. In risk management of the
underlying assets using financial derivatives, the basic strategy is hedging, i.e., the trader holds
two positions of equal amounts but opposite directions, one in the underlying markets, and the
other in the derivatives markets, simultaneously. This risk management strategy is based on the
following reasoning: it is believed that under normal circumstances, prices of underlying assets
and their derivatives change roughly in the same direction with basically the same magnitude;

hence losses in the underlying assets (derivatives) markets can be offset by gains in the
derivatives (underlying assets) markets; therefore losses can be prevented or reduced by
combining the risks due to the price changes. The subject of this book is pricing of financial
derivatives and risk management by hedging.
Over the years the Indian leather has undergone drastic change from being a mere
exporter of raw materials in the early 60s and 70s to an exporter of finished, value-added
leather products.
The main reason behind this good transformation is the several policy initiatives takn by the
government of India. India proactive government initiatives have yielded quick and improved
results. Today the Indian leather industry has attained a prominent place in the Indian export and
has made the industry one of the top 7 industries that earns foreign exchange for the country.

industry has flourished consistently in several ways and has contributed heavily to the Indian
exchequer. Investing in Indian Leather Industry is advantageous because the industry is poised to
grow further and achieve a major share in the global trading market.
The post liberalization era has opened up a great plethora of opportunities for the Indian Leather
Industry. As the global players looking for new sourcing options while in addition to China,
India stands to gain a bigger share of the global market. Leading brands from the US and Europe
have plans to source leather and leather products from India.
Indian Leather Industry currently is one among the top 8 industries for export revenue generation
in India, holding 10% of the global raw material, and 2% of the global trade. India has become
biggest livestock producer in the world, with the capacity of 1.8 billion square feet of leather
production annually. Global Footwear of 13% production comprising of 16 billion pairs are
made in India. India today produces 2065 million pairs of various categories of footwear. It
exports 115 million pairs, thus having 95% of its production to meet its own domestic demand.

Indian Leather Industry has developed to a large extent and is the second largest producer next to
China. The industry is equipped mostly with a potential for employment generation, growth and
exports, with the annual exports touching 2 billion USD. The industry experienced a positive
metamorphosis from being a transporter of raw materials to an established exporter of value
added and finished leather products. Currently it is on an ever increasing phase with optimum
utilization of available raw materials and maximum returns from exports.
India has less than 3% share in the global trade in leather compared to China's 20%. Government
of India realizing the growth potential of the leather industry has been making significant efforts
to promote rapid advancement of the industry. On June 30, 2005, the Cabinet Committee on
Economic Affairs (CCEA) decided to implement an Rs 2.9 billion scheme for the integrated
development of the Indian Leather Industry. Under the scheme, existing tanneries will be
modernized and new units will be set up for footwear, components and leather products. This
scheme is expected to result in gains in terms of productivity, right-sizing of capacity, cost-
cutting, and design-development. The leather and leather products industry is one of the oldest
manufacturing industries in India. The Indian leather industry provides employment to about 2.5
million people in the country and has an annual turnover of approximately US$ 5,000,000.
Indian leather Industry occupies a prominent place in the Indian economy in view of its massive
potential for employment, growth and exports. There has been an increasing emphasis on its

Indian Leather Industry has developed to a large extent and is the second
largest producer next to China. The industry is equipped mostly with a
potential for employment generation, growth and exports, with theannual exports touching 2 billion USD.
INDIAN LEATHER INDUSTRY AT A GLANCE IN 20122013:
The leather and leather products exports touched $4.5 billion in the fiscal year 2011-12, posting
growth of more than 27% as compared to last year, according to the Council for Leather Exports
in India. Although, it missed the targeted $4.7 billion, the export growth has been attained in the
face of slowdown during the global economy and the sliding value of the Rupee which has made
the imports of raw material expensive.
Last year, the exports stood at $3.5 billion. The centre has set a target of $14 billion during 2016-
17 for the leather industry. Leather footwear accounts for almost 40% of the exports followed up
with the garments that account for almost 10%. The industry has moved to the products exports
from being an exporter of finished leather, which now makes up only for a small portion.

INDUSTRY WRITE-UP:
The Leather industry holds a prominent place in the Indian economy. This sector is
known for its consistency in high export earnings and it is among the top ten foreign exchange
earners for the country. With an annual turnover of over US$ 7.5 billion, the export of leather
and leather products increased manifold over the past decades and touched US$ 4.86 billion in
2012, recording a cumulative annual growth rate of about 8.22% (5 years). The leather industry
is bestowed with an affluence of raw materials as India is endowed with 21% of world cattle &
buffalo and 11% of world goat & sheep population. Added to this are the strengths of skilled
manpower, innovative technology, increasing industry compliance to international environmental
standards, and the dedicated support of the allied industries. The major markets for Indian leather
& leather Products are Germany with a share of 15.01%, UK 11.15%, Italy 10.85%, USA 9.02%,
Hong Kong 7.38%, France 6.25%, Spain 6.08%,Netherlands 4.07%, Belgium 2.32%, China2.54%, U.A.E.2.24%, Australia 1.39%, These 12 countries together accounts for nearly 78.30%
of Indias total leather& leather products export. The Government of India had identified the
Leather Sector as a focus sector in its Foreign Trade Policy in view of its immense potential for
export growth prospects and employment generation. Accordingly, the Government is also
implementing various special focus initiatives under the Foreign Trade Policy for the growth of
leather sector. With the implementation of various industrial developmental programs as well as
8/12/2019 Financial Risk Management for Correction - 28.03.2014
24/73
export promotional activities, the Indian leather industry aims to augment the production, thereby
enhance export, and resultantly create additional employment opportunities for over one million
people.
The industry is essentially dominated by small scale firms with a few medium and large
sized firms. The industry is concentrated in several leather clusters in 4-5 distinct locations in the
country. Though government policies towards the industry have been supportive both for small-
scale sector development as well export promotion, the industry is caught up with socio political
issues relating to slaughtering of animals.

26/73
The total operating income has remained in the range of Rs. 105 lakhs in the past four
year period FY10-13. In FY12, the total operating income declined by nearly 12% primarily on
account of higher job work carried out by the firm wherein the customer provided the raw
material (leather sheets & paper boards) and the company processed the same, to manufacture
insoles for footwear. However, in FY13, the total operating income registered a growth of
13.41% primarily on account of increased volumes from the existing customers.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE - COST STRUCTURE:

Material Costs constituted the highest pie in the cost structure for FY13. For the previous year
also, itwas the major cost contributor to the total costs. While employee costs increased from Rs.
32.63 lakh toRs.37.65 lakh in FY13, the power & fuel costs increased from Rs. 0.79 lakh to
Rs.0.90 lakh. Fixedcapital charges (depreciation and finance costs) covered 5.14 portion of totalcosts for FY13.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE - BALANCE SHEET:ASSETS:
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE - PROFITABILITY & RETURNS:
Although, the PBILDT margin has continuously increased in the past four years from
3.40% in FY10 to 5.47% in FY13, it continues to remain thin on account of fragmented nature of
industry with intense competition, putting pressure on margins. The PAT margins continue to
remain thin at 0.56% in FY13 in line with low PBILDT margins. Furthermore, the thin profit
margins are also exposed to price volatility associated with the imported raw materials. The firm
procures its key raw materials from Italy, Germany and China based on usance letter of credit.
8/12/2019 Financial Risk Management for Correction - 28.03.2014
29/73
The company does not hedge its foreign currency exposure and has to absorb adverse
fluctuations in exchange rates that might occur from the time of material procurement to the time
of settlement of usance letter of credit. The promoter has indicated that the firm is renegotiating
the prices with its customers to pass on the increase in input prices on account of rupee
depreciation. However, the firms thin profitability is exposed to foreign currency fluctuation
risk, which is likely to impact the already thin margins adversely.

The average raw material inventory days remains high at 106 days as of March 31, 2013.
This is primarily on account of firms procurement policy wherein it imports its key raw material
namely leather sheets and paper boards to meet its six months production in order to achieve
better pricing and economies of scale. However, the total inventory period is at 60 days as it is
computed on cost of sales (which includes employee cost and other overheads) whereas the
average raw material inventory period is computed on material cost. The firm provides to 3
months credit period to its customers whereas it imports based on usance letter of credit for a
period of 90 days. The firm relies upon bank funding in the form of overdraft facility to meet its
working capital requirement. The banker has indicated that the average overdraft utilization
levels remained at nearly 90% for the past 12- month period ended July 2013.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE:
FACTORS AFFECTING OPTION PREMIUM
THE PRICE OF THE UNDERLYING ASSET: (S)
Changes in the underlying asset price can increase or decrease the premium of an option.
These price changes have opposite effects on calls and puts. For instance, as the price of the
underlying asset rises, the premium of a call will increase and the premium of a put will
decrease. A decrease in the price of the underlying assets value will generally have the opposite
effect
THE SRIKE PRICE: (K)
The strike price determines whether or not an option has any intrinsic value. An options
premium generally increases as the option gets further in the money, and decreases as the option
becomes more deeply out of the money.
Time until expiration: (t)
An expiration approaches, the level of an options time value, for puts and calls, decreases.
Volatility:
Volatility is simply a measure of risk (uncertainty), or variability of an options underlying.
Higher volatility estimates reflect greater expected fluctuations (in either direction) in underlying
price levels. This expectation generally results in higher option premiums for puts and calls alike,
and is most noticeable with at- the- money options.
Interest rate: (R1)
This effect reflects the COST OF CARRY the interest that might be paid for margin, in
case of an option seller or received from alternative investments in the case of an option buyer
for the premium paid.Higher the interest rate, higher is the premium of the option as the cost of
carry increases.
It is a interesting tool for small retail investors. An option is a contract, which gives the buyer
(holder) the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell specified quantity of the underlying
assets, at a specific (strike) price on or before a specified time (expiration date). The underlying
may be physical commodities like wheat/ rice/ cotton/ gold/ oil or financial instruments like
equity stocks/ stock index/ bonds etc.

MONTHLY OPTIONS :
The exchange trade option with one month maturity and the contract usually expires on
last Thursday of every month.
PROBLEMS WITH MONTHLY OPTIONS:
Investors often face a problem when hedging using the three-monthly cycle options as the
premium paid for hedging is very high. Also the trader has to pay more money to take a long or
short position which results into illiquidity in the market. Thus to overcome the problem the BSE
introduced WEEKLY OPTIONS.
WEEKLY OPTIONS:
The exchange trade option with one or weak maturity and the contract expires on last
Friday of every week
ADVANTAGES
Weekly Options are advantageous to many to investors, hedgers and traders. The premium paid for buying options is also much lower as they have shorter time to
maturity.
The trader will also have to pay lesser money to take a long or short position. the trader can
take a larger position in the market with limited loss. On account of low cost, the liquidity will
improve, as more participants would come in. Weekly Options would lead to better pricediscovery and improvement in market depth, resulting in better price discovery and improvement
in market efficiency
TYPES OF OPTION:
CALL OPTION
A call option gives the holder (buyer/ one who is long call), the right to buy specified
quantity of the underlying asset at the strike price on or before expiration date. The seller (one
who is short call) however, has the obligation to sell the underlying asset if the buyer of the call
option decides to exercise his option to buy. To acquire this right the buyer pays a premium to
the writer (seller) of the contract.
Example:-
Suppose in this option there are two parties one is Mahesh (call buyer) who is bullish in
the market and other is Rakesh (call seller) who is bearish in the market.

2. CALL SELLER:
In another scenario, if at the tie of product price falls below Rs. 600 say suppose the stock price
fall to Rs.550 the buyer will choose not to exercise the option.

Loss
Profit for the Seller limited to the premium received = Rs.25
Loss unlimited for the seller if price touches above 600 say 630 then the loss of Rs.30
Finally the stock price goes to Rs.610 the buyer will not exercise the option because he has the
lost the premium of Rs.25.So he will buy the share from the seller at Rs.610.
Thus from the above example it shows that option contracts are formed so to avoid the unlimited
losses and have limited losses to the certain extent
Thus call option indicates two positions as follows:

A measure of change in the delta that may occur corresponding to the rise or fall in the price of
the underlying asset.
Gamma = change in option delta
__________________
change in underlying price
The gamma of an option tells you how much the delta of an option would increase or
decrease for a unit change in the price of the underlying. For example, assume the gamma of an
option is 0.04 and its delta is 0.5. For a unit change in the price of the underlying, the delta of the
option would change to 0.5 + 0.04 = 0.54. The new delta of the option at changed underlying
price is 0.54; so the rate of change in the premium has increased. suppose the delta changed to
0.5-0.04 = 0.46 thus the rate of premium will decreased .
In simple terms if delta is velocity, then gamma is acceleration. Delta tells you how much
the premium would change; gamma changes delta and tells you how much the next premium
change would be for a unit price change in the price of the underlying.
Gamma is positive for long positions (long call and long put) and negative for shortpositions (short call and short put). Gamma does not matter much for options with long maturity.
However for options with short maturity, gamma is high and the value of the options changes
very fast with swings in the underlying prices
THETA:
A measure of change in the value of an option corresponding to its time to maturity. It is
a measure of time decay (or time shrunk). Theta is generally used to gain an idea of how time
decay is affecting your portfolio.
Change in an option premium
Theta = --------------------------------------
Change in time to expiry
Theta is usually negative for an option as with a decrease in time, the option value decreases.
This is due to the fact that the uncertainty element in the price decreases.
8/12/2019 Financial Risk Management for Correction - 28.03.2014
42/73
Example:-
Suppose the theta of Infosys 30-day call option with a strike price of Rs3,900 is 4.5 when Infosys
is quoting at Rs3,900, volatility is 50% and the risk-free interest rate is 8%. This means that if
the price of Infosys and the other parameters like volatility remain the same and one day passes,
the value of this option would reduce by Rs.4.5.
ADVANTAGE:
Theta is always positive for the seller of an option, as the value of the position of the
seller increases as the value of the option goes down with time.
DISADVANTAGE:
Theta is always negative for the buyer of an option, as the value of the option
goes down each day if his view is not realized. In simple words theta tells how much
value the option would lose after one day, with all the other parameters remaining the
same.
VEGA
The extent of extent of change that may occur in the option premium, given a change in
the volatility of the underlying instrument.
Change in an option premium
Vega = -----------------------------------------
Change in volatility
Example:-
Suppose the Vega of an option is 0.6 and its premium is Rs15 when volatility of the
underlying is 35%. As the volatility increases to 36%, the premium of the option would change
upward to Rs15.6. Vega is positive for a long position (long call and long put) and negative for a
short position (short call and short put).
ADVANTAGE
Simply put, for the buyer it is advantageous if the volatility increases
after he has bought the option.

CROSS MARGINING:
This is a method of calculating margin after taking into account combined positions in
Futures, options, cash market etc. Hence, the total margin requirement reduces due to cross-
Hedges.
MARK-TO-MARKET MARGIN:
It is a one day market which fluctuates on daily basis and on every scrip proper
evaluation is done. E.g. Investor has purchase the Wipro FUTURES. and pays the Initial margin.
Suddenly script of Wipro falls then the investor is required to pay the mark-to-market margin
also called as variation margin for trading in the future contract.

DATA ANALYSIS AND INTERPRRETATION
8/12/2019 Financial Risk Management for Correction - 28.03.2014
47/73
DATA ANALYSIS AND INTERPRRETATION:
Derivatives is a financial product (shares, bonds) any act which is concerned with lending
and borrowing (bank) does not have its value borrow the value from underlying asset/ basic
variables.
Derivatives is derived from the following products:
A. Shares
B. Debuntures
C. Mutual funds
D. Gold
E. Steel
F. Interest rate
G. Currencies.Derivatives is a type of market where two parties are entered into a contract one is bullish
and other is bearish in the market having opposite views regarding the market. There cannot be a
derivatives having same views about the market. In short it is like a INSURANCE market where
investors cover their risk for a particular position.
Derivatives are financial contracts of pre-determined fixed duration, whose values are
derived from the value of an underlying primary financial instrument, commodity or index, such
as: interest rates, exchange rates, commodities, and equities.
Derivatives are risk shifting instruments. Initially, they were used to reduce exposure to
changes in foreign exchange rates, interest rates, or stock indexes or commonly known as risk
hedging. Hedging is the most important aspect of derivatives and also its basic economic
purpose. There has to be counter party to hedgers and they are speculators. Speculators dont
look at derivatives as means of reducing risk but its a business for them. Rather he accepts risks
8/12/2019 Financial Risk Management for Correction - 28.03.2014
48/73
from the hedgers in pursuit of profits. Thus for a sound derivatives market, both hedgers and
speculators are essential.
Derivatives trading has been a new introduction to the Indian markets. It is, in a sense
promotion and acceptance of market economy, that has really contributed towards the growing
awareness of risk and hence the gradual introduction of derivatives to hedge such risks.
Initially derivatives was launched in America called Chicago. Then in 1999, RBI introduced
derivatives in the local currency Interest Rate markets, which have not really developed, but with
the gradual acceptance of the ALM guidelines by banks, there should be an instrumental product
in hedging their balance sheet liabilities.The first product which was launched by BSE and NSE
in the derivatives market was index futures
INTRODUCTION TO FUTURE MARKET:
Futures markets were designed to solve the problems that exit in forward markets. A
futures con tract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell an asset at a certain time in
the future at a certain price. There is a multilateral contract between the buyer and seller for a
underlying asset which may be financial instrument or physical commodities. But unlike forward
contracts the future contracts are standardized and exchange traded.
PURPOSE:
The primary purpose of futures market is to provide an efficient and effective mechanism
for management of inherent risks, without counter-party risk. It is a derivative instrument and a
type of forward contract The future contracts are affected mainly by the prices of the underlying
asset. As it is a future contract the buyer and seller has to pay the margin to trade in the futures
market. It is essential that both the parties compulsorily discharge their respective obligations on
the settlement day only, even though the payoffs are on a daily marking to market basis to avoid
default risk. Hence, the gains or losses are netted off on a daily basis and each morning start with
a fresh opening value. Here both the parties face an equal amount of risk and are also required to
pay upfront margins to the exchange irrespective of whether they are buyers or sellers. Index
based financial futures are settled in cash unlike futures on individual stocks which are very rare
and yet to be launched even in the US. Most of the financial futures worldwide are index based
and hence the buyer never comes to know who the seller is, both due to the presence of the
clearing corporation of the stock exchange in between and also due to secrecy reasons

MARGIN
Margin is money deposited by the buyer and the seller to ensure the integrity of the
contract. Normally the margin requirement has been designed on the concept of VAR at 99%
levels. Based on the value at risk of the stock/index margins are calculated. In general margin
ranges between 10-50% of the contract value.
PURPOSE:
The purpose of margin is to provide a financial safeguard to ensure that traders will
perform on their contract obligations.
HEDGERS :
Hedgers are the traders who wish to eliminate the risk of price change to which they are
already exposed.It is a mechanism by which the participants in the physical/ cash markets can
cover their price risk. Hedgers are those persons who dont want to take the risk therefore they
hedge their risk while taking position in the contract. In short it is a way of reducing risks when
the investor has the underlying security.

STRATEGY:
The basic hedging strategy is to take an equal and opposite position in the futures market to the
spot market. If the investor buys the scrip in the spot market but suddenly the market drops then
the investor hedge their risk by taking the short position in the Index futures.

HEDGING AND DIVERSIFICATION:
Hedging is one of the principal ways to manage risk, the other being diversification.
Diversification and hedging do not have have cost in cash but have opportunity cost. Hedging is
implemented by adding a negatively and perfectly correlated asset to an existing asset. Hedging
eliminates both sides of risk: the potential profit and the potential loss. Diversification minimizes
risk for a given amount of return (or, alternatively, maximizes return for a given amount of risk).
Diversification is affected by choosing a group of assets instead of a single asset (technically, by
adding positively and imperfectly correlated assets).
Example:-
Ram enters into a contract with Shyam that he sells 50 pens to Shyam for Rs.1000. The
cost of manufacturing the pen for Ram is only Rs. 400 and he will make a profit of Rs 600 if
the sale is completed.
COST SELLING PRICE PROFIT
400 1000 600
However, Ram fears that Shyam may not honour his contract. So he inserts a new clause
in the contract that if Shyam fails to honour the contract he will have to pay a penalty of Rs.400.And if Shyam honours the contract Ram will offer a discount of Rs 100 as incentive.
Shyam defaults Shyam honors
400(Initial Investment) 600(Initial profit)
400(penalty from Shyam (-100) discount given to Shyam
- (No gain/loss) 500(Net gain)
Finally if Shyam defaults Ram will get a penalty of Rs 400 but Ram will recover his
initial investment. If Shyam honors the bill the ram will get a profit of 600 deducting the
discount of Rs.100 and net profit for ram is Rs.500. Thus Ram has hedged his risk against default
and protected his initial investment.

LONG SECURITY, SELL FUTURES:
Here stock futures can be used as an effective risk management tool. In this case the
investor buys the shares of the company but suddenly the rally goes down. Thus to maximize the
risk the Hedger enters into a future contract and takes a short position. However the losses
suffers in the security will be offset by the profits he makes on his short future position.
Spot Price of ACC = 390
Market action = 350
Loss = 40
Strategy = BUY SECURITY, SELL FUTURES
Two month Futures= 390
Premium = 12
Short position = 390
Future profit = 40(390-350)
As the fall in the price of the security will result in a fall in the price of Futures. Now the Futures
will trade at a price lower then the price at which the hedger entered into a short position.
Finally the loss of Rs.40 incurred on the security hedger holds, will be made up the profits made
on his short futures position.
HAVE STOCK, BUY PUTS:
This is one of the simplest ways to take on hedge. Here the investor buys 100 shares of
HLL.The spot price of HLL is 232 suddenly the investor worries about the fall of price.
Therefore the solution is buy put options on HLL.The investor buys put option with a strike of
Rs.240. The premium charged is Rs.10.Here the investor has two possible scenarios three
months later.
1) IF PRICE RISES
Market action: 215
Loss : 17(232-15)
Strike price : 240
8/12/2019 Financial Risk Management for Correction - 28.03.2014
54/73
Premium : 08
Profit : 17(240-215-8)
Thus loss he suffers on the stock will be offset by the profit the investor earns on the put
option bought.
2) IF PRICE RISES:
Market share : 250
Loss : 10
Short position : 250(spot market)
Thus the investor has a limited loss(determined by the strike price investor chooses) and an
unlimited profit.
HAVE PORTFOLIO, SHORT NIFTY FUTURES:
Here the investor are holding the portfolio of stocks and selling nifty futures. In the case of
portfolios, most of the portfolio risk is accounted for by index fluctuations. Hence a position
LONG PORTFOLIO+ SHORT NIFTY can often become one-tenth as risky as the LONGPORTFOLIO position.
Let us assume that an investor is holding a portfolio of following scrips as given below on
1stMay, 2001.
Company Beta Amount of Holding ( in Rs)
Infosys 1.55 400,000.00
Global Tele 2.06 200,000.00
Satyam Comp 1.95 175,000.00
HFCL 1.9 125,000.00
Total Value of Portfolio 1,000,000.00

Trading Strategy to be followed:
The investor feels that the market will go down in the next two months and wants to
protect him from any adverse movement. To achieve this the investor has to go short on 2
months NIFTY futures i.e he has to sell June Nifty. This strategy is called Short Hedge.
Formula to calculate the number of futures for hedging purposes is
Beta adjusted Value of Portfolio / Nifty Index level
Beta of the above portfolio
=(1.55*400,000)+(2.06*200,000)+(1.95*175,000)+(1.9*125, 000)/1,000,000
=1.61075 (round to 1.61)
Applying the formula to calculate the number of futures contracts
Assume NIFTY futures to be 1150 on 1stMay 2001
=(1,000,000.00 * 1.61) / 1150
=1400 Units
Since one Nifty contract is 200 units, the investor has to sell 7 Nifty contracts.

SPECULATORS:
If hedgers are the people who wish to avoid price risk, speculators are those who are willing to
take such risk. speculators are those who do not have any position and simply play with the
others money. They only have a particular view on the market, stock, commodity etc. In short,
speculators put their money at risk in the hope of profiting from an anticipated price change.
Here if speculators view is correct he earns profit. In the event of speculator not being covered,
he will loose the position. They consider various factors such as demand supply, market
positions, open interests, economic fundamentals and other data to take their positions.
SPECULATION IN THE FUTURES MARKET
Speculation is all about taking position in the futures market without having the underlying.
Speculators operate in the market with motive to make money. They take:
Naked positions - Position in any future contract. Spread positions - Opposite positions in two future contracts. This is a conservative
speculative strategy.
Speculators bring liquidity to the system, provide insurance to the hedgers and facilitate

the price discovery in the market.

EXAMPLE:-
Here the Speculator believes that stock market will going to appreciate.
Current market price of PATNI COMPUTERS = 1500
Strategy: Buy February PATNI futures contract at 1500
Lot size = 100 shares
Contract value = 1,50,000 (1500*100)
8/12/2019 Financial Risk Management for Correction - 28.03.2014

Margin = 15000 (10% of 150000)
Market action = rise to 1550
Future Gain:Rs. 5000 [(1550-1500)*100]
Market action = fall to 1400
Future loss: Rs.-10000 [(1400-1500)*100]
Thus the Speculator has a view on the market and accept the risk in anticipating of profiting from
the view. He study the market and play the game with the stock market
TYPES:
POSITION TRADERS:
These traders have a view on the market an hold positions over a period of as days until their
target is met.
DAY TRADERS:
Day traders square off the position during the curse of the trading day and book theprofits.
SCALPERS:
Scalpers in anticipation of making small profits trade a number of times throughout the
day.
SPECULATING WITH OPTIONS:
A speculator has a definite outlook about future price, therefore he can buy put or call option
depending upon his perception about future price. If speculator has a bullish outlook, he will buy
calls or sell (write) put. In case of bearish perception, the speculator will put r write calls. If
speculators view is correct he earns profit. In the event of speculator not being covered, he will
loose the position. A Speculator will buy call or put if his price outlook in a particular direction
is very strong but if is either neutral or not so strong. He would prefer writing call or put to earn
premium in the event of price situations.

BULLISH STOCK, BUY CALLS OR BUY PUTS:
Under this strategy the speculator is bullish in the market. He could do any of the following:
BUY STOCK
ACC spot price : 150
No of shares : 200
Price : 150*200 = 30,000
Market action : 160
Profit : 2,000
Return : 6.6% returns over 2months
BUY CALL OPTION:
Strike price : 150
Premium : 8
Lot size : 200 sharesMarket action :160
Profit : (160-150-8)*200 = 400
Return : 25% returns over 2months
This shows that investor can earn more in the call option because it gives 25% returns over a
investment of 2months as compared to 6.6% returns over a investment in stocks
BEARISH SECURITY,SELL FUTURES:
In this case the stock futures is overvalued and is likely to see a fall in price. Here simple
arbitrage ensures that futures on an individual securities more correspondingly with the
underlying security as long as there is sufficient liquidity in the market for the security. If the
security price rises the future price will also rise and vice-versa.
8/12/2019 Financial Risk Management for Correction - 28.03.2014

Two month Futures on SBI = 240
Lot size = 100shares
Margin = 24
Market action = 220
Future profit = 20(240-220)
Finally on the day of expiration the spot and future price converges the investor makes a profit
because the speculator is bearish in the market and all the future stocks need to sell in the market.
BULLISH INDEX, LONG NIFTY FUTURES:
Here the investor is bullish in the index. Using index futures, an invest or can BUY OR SELL
the entire index trading on one single security. Once a person is LONG NIFTY using the futures
market, the investor gains if the index rises and loss if the index falls.
1stJuly = Index will rise
Buy nifty July contract = 960
Lot =200

Nifty July contract= 980

ARBITRAGEURS:
Arbitrage is the concept of simultaneous buying of securities in one market where the price is
low and selling in another market where the price is higher.
Arbitrageurs thrive on market imperfections. Arbitrageur is intelligent and knowledgeable person
and ready to take the risk He is basically risk averse. He enters into those contracts were he can
earn risk less profits. When markets are imperfect, buying in one market and simultaneously
selling in other market gives risk less profit. Arbitrageurs are always in the look out for such
imperfections.
In the futures market one can take advantages of arbitrage opportunities by buying from lower
priced market and selling at the higher priced market.
JM Morgan introduced EQUITY DERIVATIVES FUND called as ARBITRAGE FUND where
the investor buys the shares in the cash market and sell the shares in the future market.
ARBITRAGEURS IN FUTURES MARKET
Arbitrageurs facilitate the alignment of prices among different markets through operating in themsimultaneously.

STRATEGIES:
BUY SPOT, SELL FUTURES:
In this the investor observing that futures have been overpriced, how can the investor
cash in this opportunity to earn risk less profits. Say for instance ACC = 1000 and One month
ACC futures = 1025.
This shows that futures have been overpriced and therefore as an Arbitrageur, investor can
make risk less profits entering into the following set f transactions.
On day one, borrow funds, buy security on the spot market at 1000
Simultansely, sell the futures on the security at1025
Take delivery of the security purchased and hold the security for a month
on the futures expiration date, the spot and futures converge . Now unwind the position
Sa y the security closes at Rs.1015. Sell the security
Futures position expires with the profit f Rs.10 The result is a risk less profit of Rs.15 on the spot position and Rs.10 on the futures
position
Return the Borrow funds.Finally if the cost of borrowing funds to buy the security is less than the arbitrage profit possible,
it makes sense for the investor to enter into the arbitrage. This is termed as cash and-carry
arbitrage.

BUY FUTURES, SELL SPOT:
In this the investor observing that futures have been under priced, how can the
investor cash in this opportunity to earn risk less profits. Say for instance ACC = 1000 and One
month ACC futures = 965.
This shows that futures have been under priced and therefore as an Arbitrageur, investor can
make risk less profits entering into the following set f transactions.
On day one, sell the security on the spot market at 1000
Mae delivery of the security
Simultansely, buy the futures on the security at 965
On the futures expiration date, the spot and futures converge . Now unwind the position
Sa y the security closes at Rs.975. Sell the security
Futures position expires with the profit f Rs.10
The result is a risk less profit of Rs.25 the spot position and Rs.10 on the futures position
Finally if the returns get investing in risk less instruments is less than the return from the
arbitrage it makes sense for the investor to enter into the arbitrage. This is termed as reverse
cashand- carry arbitrage.
ARBITRAGE WITH NIFTY FUTURES:
Arbitrage is the opportunity of taking advantage of the price difference between two
markets. An arbitrageur will buy at the cheaper market and sell at the costlier market. It is
possible to arbitraged between NIFTY in the futures market and the cash market. If the futures
price is any of the prices given below other than the equilibrium price then the strategy to be
followed is

CASE-1
Spot Price of INFOSEYS = 1650
Future Price Of INFOSEYS = 1675
In this case the arbitrageur will buy INFOSEYS in the cash market at Rs.1650 and sell in the
futures at Rs.1675 and finally earn risk free profit Of Rs.25.
CASE-2
Future Price Of ACC = 675
Spot Price of ACC = 700
In this case the arbitrageur will buy ACC in the Future market at Rs.675 and sell in the Spot at
Rs.700 and finally earn risk free profit Of Rs.25.

FINDINGS
The study reveals the effectiveness of risk reduction using hedging strategies. It hasfound out that risk cannot be avoided. But can only be minimized.
Through the study. it has found out that, the hedging provides a safe position on an underlying security. The loss gets shifted to a counter party. Thus the hedging covers the
loss and risk. Sometimes, the market performs against the expectation. This will trigger
losses. so the hedger should be a strategic and positive thinker.
The anticipation of the hedger regarding the trend of the movement in the prices of the underlying security plays a key role in the result of the strategy applied.
It has been found that, all the strategies applied on historical data of the period of thestudy were able to reduce the loss that rose from price risk substantially.
If the trader is not sure about the direction of the movement of the profits of the current position, he can counter position in the future contract and reduces the level of risks.
The trader can effectively use the strategy for return enhancement provided he has the correct market anticipation.
In general, the anticipation of the strategies purely for return enhancement is a riskyaffair, because, if the anticipation about the performance of the market and the underlying
goes wrong, the position taker would end up in higher losses.

SUGGESTIONS
If an organisation wants to hedge with portfolios, it must consist of scrips fromdifferent industries, since they are convenient and represent true nature of the securities
market as a whole.
The hedging tool to reduce the losses that may arise from the market risk. Its primaryobjective is loss minimization, not profit maximization .The profit from futures or shares
will be offset from the losses from futures or shares, as the case may be. as a result, a
hedger will earn a lower return compared to that of an unhedger. But the unhedger faces a
high risk than a hedger.
The hedger will have to be a strategic thinker and also one who think positively. Heshould be able to comprehend market trends and fluctuations. Otherwise, the strategies
adopted by him earn him earn losses.
The hedging tool is suitable in the short term period. They can be specifically adopted bythe investor, who are facing high risks and has sufficient liquid cash with them. Long
term investor should beware from the market, because of the volatile nature of themarket.
A lot more awareness needed about the stock market and investment pattern, both inspot and future market. The working of BSE Training Institute and NSE Institutes are
apprehensible in this regard.

CONCLUSION
Derivative use for hedging is only to increase due to the increased global linkages and
volatile exchange rates. Firms need to look at instituting a sound risk management system and
also need to formulate their hedging strategy that suits their specific firm
characteristics and exposures.
In India, regulation has been steadily eased and turnover and liquidity in the foreign
currency derivative markets has increased, although the use is mainly in shorter maturity
contracts of one year or less. Forward and option contracts are the more popular instruments.
Regulators had initially only allowed certain banks to deal in this market however now
corporates can also write option contracts. There are many variants of these derivatives which
investment banks across the world specialize in,and as the awareness and demand for these
variants increases.
