Written for the professional market but accessible enough for individual investors, The Investor’s Guidebook to Derivatives includes all the information needed to succeed in today’s complex derivatives market, including:
• 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.
