financial derivatives - is you money safe?
DESCRIPTION
Financial Derivatives - Is You Money Safe? Financial derivatives are securities whose price is dependent upon or derived from one or more underlying assets. The derivative itself is merely a contract between two or more parties. Its value is determined by fluctuations in the underlying asset. The most common underlying assets include stocks, bonds, commodities, currencies, interest rates and market indexes. The most common types of financial derivatives are futures contracts, forward contracts, options and swaps. In order to understand the enormous size of these derivative (paper) contract market, please take a look on the following chart that originates from economist John Exter. All amounts presented are estimated approximations but should give you an understanding on how those "derivatives" relate to other existing assets of the world. http://www.mylifeplan.info/financial-derivatives.html Warren Buffett has called derivatives as "Weapons of Mass Destruction"TRANSCRIPT
