· What constitutes a “derivative instrument”
· The difference between forward and forecast prices
· Pricing and using forward contracts
· Swaps: pricing and applications
· Option vocabulary
· Pricing options—a framework
· Implementing directional and volatility strategies
· Exotic options: pricing and applications
· Options on natural occurrences: rain, snow, and wind
The Investor’s Guidebook series presents investment vehicles and strategies from both the issuers’ and the investors’ perspectives. Starting with basic concepts and then building to state-of-the-art pricing models, strategies, and tactics, these succinct handbooks will be useful for everyone from new hires through experienced professionals.
