What Are...
Derivatives?
 DERIVATIVES

A Financial Instrument That

Derives Its Value From An
Underlying Security
 Derivatives Explanation

An easy way to think of derivatives is as

a “side bet” on interest rates, exchange
rates, commodity prices, and practically
ANYTHING that you can think of.
 Why Derivatives?
• Not to raise capital
• Buy or sell to protect against adverse
changes in external factors

Forwards
 Forwards Contracts

The agreement to pay for and pick up,

“Something” at a pre-determined date
and or time, for a pre-determined price.
Usually traded off of the trading floor
between two firms.
 Terms
• Taking Delivery: Physical reception of
item.
• Deliverable Instrument: The item to be
delivered
• Making Delivery: Turning over the
item.
Forwards are not options, they are
obligations and should be considered
as a “cash transaction.”

 A Modest Example
An agreement on Monday to buy a book,
(Fin 374c) from a bookstore on Friday for
$1000.00.
On Friday, you return to the bookstore and
take delivery of the book and pay the
$1000.00.
The contract is actually the agreement.
Futures
 Futures
Similar to forwards in length of time.
However, profits and losses are
recognized at the close of business
daily, “Mark-to-market.” Transactions
go through a clearinghouse to reduce
default risk. 90% of all futures
contracts are delivered to someone
other than the original buyer.
 Futures Example
On Monday we enter into a futures contract to buy
our book on Friday. We are required to place a
deposit for the book of 50% ($500.00). We are told
that if the book appreciates in value we may be
required to increase the deposit. If the book
depreciates in value, we may take back some of the
money. Wednesday the book goes to $1500.00. We
must deposit another $250.00. On Thursday the book
drops to $750.00. We can collect $375.00. On Friday
the book value is $800.00, therefore we owe $425.00
on the remaining balance.
Options
 Options
Options come in many flavors. To name a
few: collar, cylinder, fence, mini-max,
zero-cost tunnel and straddle. These are all
newer forms of options. The most
common options discussed are put and
call.
An OPTION is the right, not the obligation
to buy or sell an underlying instrument.
 Option Terms
• Put: the right to sell @ a certain price
• Call: the right to buy @ a certain price
• Long: to purchase the option
• Short: to sell or write the option
• Bullish: feel the value will increase
• Bearish: feel the value will decrease
• Strike/Exercise Price: Price the option
can be bought or sold.

 Calls
Long a call. Person buys the right (a contract) to
buy
an asset at a cretin price. They feel that the price
in the future will exceed the strike price. This is a
bullish position.

Short a Call. Person sells the right (a contract) to

someone that allows them to buy a asset at a cretin
price. The writer feels that the asset will devalue
over the time period of the contract. This person is
bearish on that asset.
 PUTS
Long a Put. Buy the right to sell an asset at a
pre-determined price. You feel that the asset will
devalue over the time of the contract. Therefore
you can sell the asset at a higher price than is the
current market value. This is a bearish position.

Short a Put. Sell the right to someone else. This

will allow them to sell the asset at a specific
price. They feel the price will go down and you
do not. This is a bullish position.

The standard market is what most people think
of when they think of the market. The truth is
that derivatives are the fastest growing sector
of the market. In fact, they are the largest
section of the market. We did not consider
mutual funds in this presentation. There are
more mutual funds in the market than there are
stocks. Again, the next graph does not
account for mutual funds.
