By Mohd Atif

One of the important reasons for the development of derivatives worldwide is economic risk associated with trading in financial assets and commodities. In the last few decades, financial markets have undergone a tremendous change. On one hand, financial markets have been deregulated and on the other hand, financial innovation coupled with advancement in computing technology has made trading mechanism easier and automated. This has led to increased volatility in the financial markets. Fluctuations in economic variables such as interest rates have further increased risk. Management and measurement of risk have undergone a huge change. To mitigate the risk associated with the rapid fluctuations in the financial markets the demand for hedging instruments have increased. One of the most important such risk mitigation instruments is a futures contract.
