Definition

A derivative contract specification contains rules and conditions that are agreed upon at an exchange and that form the basis for a derivative contract.

The derivative contract category classifies the kind of a derivative contract. The following derivative contract categories are supported:

  • Commodity Futures:

    A future is a forward transaction traded at a forward exchange, which is binding for both parties. It has a standardized issue structure.

  • Listed Options

    A listed option is a forward transaction traded on a forward exchange, which is binding for one party. Unlike futures, the risk is not evenly distributed in this case. The purchaser (owner of long position) of an option has the right to exercise. The purchaser must pay the seller an option premium for this right. The vendor (writer, owner of the short position) must fulfill the conditions of the transaction if the purchaser exercises it.
