| Abstract: | Derivatives are contracts that derive their value from the performance of other, more basic, underlying variables, which are generally but not limited to financial assets or rates (Hull, 2015). They are a category of financial instruments (like stocks and debt) and are used for speculating or hedging. Common derivatives include futures contracts, forward contracts, options, swaps and warrants. According to Swan (2000), the use of derivatives dates back to Venice in the 12th century. |
