(often simply known as the underlying). These contracts are
legally binding agreements, made on the trading screen of stock
exchanges, to buy or sell an asset in future. The asset can be a
share, index, interest rate, bond, rupee dollar exchange rate,
sugar, crude oil, soybean, cotton, coffee and what have you.
EX: derivatives is curd, which is derivative of milk. The price of
curd depends upon the price of milk which in turn depends upon
the demand and supply of milk.

prices are derived from the prices of other financial
instruments which are also know as underlying. It

Jewelry manufacturer Gold buyer agrees to buy gold at
Rs. 600 (the forward or delivery price) three months
from now (the delivery date) from gold mining concern
Gold seller. This is an example of a forward contract.
No money changes hands between Gold buyer and
Gold seller at the time the forward contract is created.
Rather, Gold buyer’s payoff depends on the spot price
at the time of delivery. Suppose that the spot price
reaches Rs. 610 at the delivery date. Then Gold buyer
gains Rs. 10 on his forward position (i.e. the difference
between the spot and forward prices) by taking
delivery of the gold at Rs. 600.

contrAct…
It is a negotiated contract between two parties and hence
exposed to counter party risk.
Each contract is custom designed and hence unique in
terms of contract size, expiration date, asset type, asset
quality etc.
A contract has to be settled in delivery or cash on
expiration date.
In case one of the two parties wishes to reverse a contract,
he has to compulsorily go to the other party. The counter
party being in a monopoly situation can command the
price he wants.
