The origin of derivatives can be traced back to the need of farmers to protect
themselves against fluctuations in the price of their crop. From the time it was
sown to the time it was ready for harvest, farmers would face price uncertainty.
Through the use of simple derivative products, it was possible for the farmer to
partially or fully transfer price risks by locking-in asset prices. These were simple
contracts developed to meet the needs of farmers and were basically a means of
reducing risk.
A farmer who sowed his crop in June faced uncertainty over the price he
would receive for his harvest in September. In years of scarcity, he would
probably obtain attractive prices. However, during times of oversupply, he would
have to dispose off his harvest at a very low price. Clearly this meant that the
farmer and his family were exposed to a high risk of price uncertainty.
On the other hand, a merchant with an ongoing requirement of grains too
would face a price risk that of having to pay exorbitant prices during dearth,
although favourable prices could be obtained during periods of oversupply. Under
such circumstances, it clearly made sense for the farmer and the merchant to
come together and enter into contract whereby the price of the grain to be
delivered in September could be decided earlier. What they would then negotiate
happened to be futures-type contract, which would enable both parties to
eliminate the price risk.
In 1848, the Chicago Board Of Trade, or CBOT, was established to bring
farmers and merchants together. A group of traders got together and created the
to-arrive contract that permitted farmers to lock into price upfront and deliver the
grain later. These to-arrive contracts proved useful as a device for hedging and
speculation on price charges. These were eventually standardized, and in 1925
the first futures clearing house came into existence.
Today derivatives contracts exist on variety of commodities such as corn,
pepper, cotton, wheat, silver etc. Besides commodities, derivatives contracts also
exist on a lot of financial underlying like stocks, interest rate, exchange rate, etc.
DERIVATIVE DEFINED
A derivative is a product whose value is derived from the value of one or more
underlying variables or assets in a contractual manner. The underlying asset can
be equity, forex, commodity or any other asset. In our earlier discussion, we saw
that wheat farmers may wish to sell their harvest at a future date to eliminate the
risk of change in price by that date. Such a transaction is an example of a
derivative. The price of this derivative is driven by the spot price of wheat which
is the underlying in this case.
The Forwards Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1952, regulates the
forward/futures contracts in commodities all over India. As per this the Forward
Markets Commission (FMC) continues to have jurisdiction over commodity
futures contracts. However when derivatives trading in securities was introduced
in 2001, the term security in the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956
(SCRA),

The underlying. This can be anything from a barrel of sweet crude oil to a

The amount and units of the underlying asset per contract. This can be the
notional amount of bonds, a fixed number of barrels of oil, units of foreign
currency, the notional amount of the deposit over which the short term
interest rate is traded, etc.
The grade of the deliverable. In case of bonds, this specifies which bonds
can be delivered. In case of physical commodities, this specifies not only
the quality of the underlying goods but also the manner and location of
delivery. The delivery month.
Other details such as the tick, the minimum permissible price fluctuation.
2. Margin:
Although the value of a contract at time of trading should be zero, its price
constantly fluctuates. This renders the owner liable to adverse changes in value,
and creates a credit risk to the exchange, who always acts as counterparty. To
minimize this risk, the exchange demands that contract owners post a form of
collateral, commonly known as Margin requirements are waived or reduced in
some cases for hedgers who have physical ownership of the covered commodity
or spread traders who have offsetting contracts balancing the position.
Initial Margin: is paid by both buyer and seller. It represents the loss on that
contract, as determined by historical price changes, which is not likely to be
exceeded on a usual day's trading. It may be 5% or 10% of total contract price.
Mark to market Margin: Because a series of adverse price changes may
exhaust the initial margin, a further margin, usually called variation or
maintenance margin, is required by the exchange. This is calculated by the
futures contract, i.e. agreeing on a price at the end of each day, called the
"settlement" or mark-to-market price of the contract.
To understand the original practice, consider that a futures trader, when taking a
position, deposits money with the exchange, called a "margin". This is intended
to protect the exchange against loss. At the end of every trading day, the contract
is marked to its present market value. If the trader is on the winning side of a
deal, his contract has increased in value that day, and the exchange pays this
profit into his account. On the other hand, if he is on the losing side, the
exchange will debit his account. If he cannot pay, then the margin is used as the
collateral from which the loss is paid.
3. Settlement
Settlement is the act of consummating the contract, and can be done in one of
two ways, as specified per type of futures contract:
Expiry is the time when the final prices of the future are determined. For many
equity index and interest rate futures contracts, this happens on the Last
Thursday of certain trading month. On this day the t+2 futures contract becomes
the t forward contract.
PRICING OF FUTURE CONTRACT
In a futures contract, for no arbitrage to be possible, the price paid on delivery
(the forward price) must be the same as the cost (including interest) of buying
and storing the asset. In other words, the rational forward price represents the
expected future value of the underlying discounted at the risk free rate. Thus, for
a simple, non-dividend paying asset, the value of the future/forward,
be found by discounting the present value
at time to maturity
, will
by the rate
of risk-free return .
This relationship may be modified for storage costs, dividends, dividend yields,
and convenience yields. Any deviation from this equality allows for arbitrage as
follows.
In the case where the forward price is higher:
1. The arbitrageur sells the futures contract and buys the underlying today
(on the spot market) with borrowed money.
2. On the delivery date, the arbitrageur hands over the underlying, and
receives the agreed forward price.
3. He then repays the lender the borrowed amount plus interest.
4. The difference between the two amounts is the arbitrage profit.
In the case where the forward price is lower:
1. The arbitrageur buys the futures contract and sells the underlying today
(on the spot market); he invests the proceeds.
2. On the delivery date, he cashes in the matured investment, which has
appreciated at the risk free rate.
3. He then receives the underlying and pays the agreed forward price using
the matured investment. [If he was short the underlying, he returns it now.]
4. The difference between the two amounts is the arbitrage profit.

OPTIONS A derivative transaction that gives the option holder the right but not the
obligation to buy or sell the underlying asset at a price, called the strike price,
during a period or on a specific date in exchange for payment of a premium is
known as option. Underlying asset refers to any asset that is traded. The price
at which the underlying is traded is called the strike price.
There are two types of options i.e., CALL OPTION & PUT OPTION.
CALL OPTION:
A contract that gives its owner the right but not the obligation to buy an
underlying asset-stock or any financial asset, at a specified price on or before a
specified date is known as a Call option. The owner makes a profit provided he
sells at a higher current price and buys at a lower future price.
PUT OPTION:
A contract that gives its owner the right but not the obligation to sell an underlying
asset-stock or any financial asset, at a specified price on or before a specified
date is known as a Put option. The owner makes a profit provided he buys at a
lower current price and sells at a higher future price. Hence, no option will be
exercised if the future price does not increase.
Put and calls are almost always written on equities, although occasionally
preference shares, bonds and warrants become the subject of options.
10
SWAPS Swaps are transactions which obligates the two parties to the contract to
exchange a series of cash flows at specified intervals known as payment or
settlement dates. They can be regarded as portfolios of forward's contracts. A
contract whereby two parties agree to exchange (swap) payments, based on
some notional principle amount is called as a SWAP. In case of swap, only the
payment flows are exchanged and not the principle amount. The two commonly
used swaps are:
INTEREST RATE SWAPS:
Interest rate swaps is an arrangement by which one party agrees to exchange
his series of fixed rate interest payments to a party in exchange for his variable
rate interest payments. The fixed rate payer takes a short position in the forward
contract whereas the floating rate payer takes a long position in the forward
contract.
CURRENCY SWAPS:
Currency swaps is an arrangement in which both the principle amount and the
interest on loan in one currency are swapped for the principle and the interest
payments on loan in another currency. The parties to the swap contract of
currency generally hail from two different countries. This arrangement allows the
counter parties to borrow easily and cheaply in their home currencies. Under a
currency swap, cash flows to be exchanged are determined at the spot rate at a
time when swap is done. Such cash flows are supposed to remain unaffected by
subsequent changes in the exchange rates.
FINANCIAL SWAP:
Financial swaps constitute a funding technique which permit a borrower to
access one market and then exchange the liability for another type of liability. It
also allows the investors to exchange one type of asset for another type of asset
with a preferred income stream.
11
BASKETS Baskets options are option on portfolio of underlying asset. Equity Index Options
are most popular form of baskets.
WARRANTS Options generally have lives of up to one year, the majority of options traded on
options exchanges having a maximum maturity of nine months. Longer-dated
options are called warrants and are generally traded over-the-counter.
SWAPTIONS Swaptions are options to buy or sell a swap that will become operative at the
expiry of the options. Thus a swaption is an option on a forward swap. Rather
than have calls and puts, the swaptions market has receiver swaptions and payer
swaptions. A receiver swaption is an option to receive fixed and pay floating. A
payer swaption is an option to pay fixed and receive floating.

The following features of OTC derivatives markets can give rise to instability in
institutions, markets, and the international financial system: (i) the dynamic
nature of gross credit exposures; (ii) information asymmetries; (iii) the effects of
OTC derivative activities on available aggregate credit; (iv) the high concentration
of OTC derivative activities in major institutions; and (v) the central role of OTC
derivatives markets in the global financial system. Instability arises when shocks,
such as counter-party credit events and sharp movements in asset prices that
underlie derivative contracts, occur which significantly alter the perceptions of
current and potential future credit exposures. When asset prices change rapidly,
the size and configuration of counter-party exposures can become unsustainably
large and provoke a rapid unwinding of positions.
There has been some progress in addressing these risks and perceptions.
However, the progress has been limited in implementing reforms in risk
management, including counter-party, liquidity and operational risks, and OTC
derivatives markets continue to pose a threat to international financial stability.
The problem is more acute as heavy reliance on OTC derivatives creates the
possibility of systemic financial events, which fall outside the more formal
clearing house structures. Moreover, those who provide OTC derivative products,
hedge their risks through the use of exchange traded derivatives. In view of the
inherent risks associated with OTC derivatives, and their dependence on
exchange traded derivatives, Indian law considers them illegal.
21
The
22
Asian currency crisis of 1990s has also brought the price volatility factor on the
surface. The advent of telecommunication and data processing bought
information very quickly to the markets. Information which would have taken
months to impact the market earlier can now be obtained in matter of moments.
Even equity holders are exposed to price risk of corporate share fluctuates
rapidly.
These price volatility risks pushed the use of derivatives like futures and options
increasingly as these instruments can be used as hedge to protect against
adverse price changes in commodity, foreign exchange, equity shares and
bonds.
B.} GLOBALISATION OF MARKETS
Earlier, managers had to deal with domestic economic concerns; what happened
in other part of the world was mostly irrelevant. Now globalisation has increased
the size of markets and as greatly enhanced competition .it has benefited
consumers who cannot obtain better quality goods at a lower cost. It has also
exposed the modern business to significant risks and, in many cases, led to cut
profit margins
In Indian context, south East Asian currencies crisis of 1997 had affected the
competitiveness of our products vis--vis depreciated currencies. Export of
certain goods from India declined because of this crisis. Steel industry in 1998
suffered its worst set back due to cheap import of steel from south East Asian
countries. Suddenly blue chip companies had turned in to red. The fear of china
devaluing its currency created instability in Indian exports. Thus, it is evident that
globalisation of industrial and financial activities necessitates use of derivatives to
guard against future losses. This factor alone has contributed to the growth of
derivatives to a significant extent.

The trading in BSE Sensex options commenced on June 4, 2001 and the trading
in options on individual securities commenced in July 2001. Futures contracts on
individual stocks were launched in November 2001. The derivatives trading on
NSE commenced with S&P CNX Nifty Index futures on June 12, 2000. The
trading in index options commenced on June 4, 2001 and trading in options on
individual securities commenced on July 2, 2001. Single stock futures were
launched on November 9, 2001. The index futures and options contract on NSE
are based on S&P CNX Trading and settlement in derivative contracts is done in
accordance with the rules, byelaws, and regulations of the respective exchanges
and their clearing house/corporation duly approved by SEBI and notified in the
official gazette. Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs) are permitted to trade in all
Exchange traded derivative products.
The following are some observations based on the trading statistics provided in
the NSE report on the futures and options (F&O):
F&O segment. It constituted 70 per cent of the total turnover during June 2002. A
primary reason attributed to this phenomenon is that traders are comfortable with
single-stock futures than equity options, as the former closely resembles the
erstwhile badla system.
remain poor. This may be due to the low volatility of the spot index. Typically,
options are considered more valuable when the volatility of the underlying (in this
case, the index) is high. A related issue is that brokers do not earn high
commissions by recommending index options to their clients, because low
volatility leads to higher waiting time for round-trips.
26
Put volumes in the index options and equity options segment have
increased since January 2002. The call-put volumes in index options have
decreased from 2.86 in January 2002 to 1.32 in June. The fall in call-put volumes
ratio suggests that the traders are increasingly becoming pessimistic on the
market.
Farther month futures contracts are still not actively traded. Trading in
equity options on most stocks for even the next month was non-existent.
Daily option price variations suggest that traders use the F&O segment as
a less risky alternative (read substitute) to generate profits from the stock price
movements. The fact that the option premiums tail intra-day stock prices is
evidence to this. If calls and puts are not looked as just substitutes for spot
trading, the intra-day stock price variations should not have a one-to-one impact
on the option premiums.

RISK MANAGEMENT
Futures and options contract can be used for altering the risk of investing in spot
market. For instance, consider an investor who owns an asset. He will always be
worried that the price may fall before he can sell the asset. He can protect
himself by selling a futures contract, or by buying a Put option. If the spot price
falls, the short hedgers will gain in the futures market, as you will see later. This
will help offset their losses in the spot market. Similarly, if the spot price falls
below the exercise price, the put option can always be exercised.
2.]
PRICE DISCOVERY
Price discovery refers to the markets ability to determine true equilibrium prices.
Futures prices are believed to contain information about future spot prices and
help in disseminating such information. As we have seen, futures markets
provide a low cost trading mechanism. Thus information pertaining to supply and
demand easily percolates into such markets. Accurate prices are essential for
ensuring the correct allocation of resources in a free market economy. Options
markets provide information about the volatility or risk of the underlying asset.

MARKET EFFICIENCY
The availability of derivatives makes markets more efficient; spot, futures and
options markets are inextricably linked. Since it is easier and cheaper to trade in
derivatives, it is possible to exploit arbitrage opportunities quickly and to keep
prices in alignment. Hence these markets help to ensure that prices reflect true
values.
5.]
EASE OF SPECULATION
The prices of derivatives converge with the prices of the underlying at the
expiration of derivative contract. Thus derivatives help in discovery of
future as well as current prices.
Derivatives markets help increase savings and investment in the long run.
Transfer of risk enables market participants to expand their volume of
