What have you learned so far..
• Definition of basic derivatives: forward, options (call, put) – Contracts concluded between a buyer and a seller
concerning a future transaction – Used to protect against and manage risk, for arbitrage,
speculation and investment – Value derives from that of underlying product or market
variable – Valuation based on no arbitrage
• Forward = SpotPrice – PV(DeliveryPrice) • Options: Binomial / Black Scholes
• There is more to come in Derivatives!

Derivatives
• A derivative is an instrument whose value depends on the value of other more basic underlying variables
• 2 main families: • Forward, Futures, Swaps • Options
• = DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS • value depends on some underlying asset
• Why derivatives? For risk management

Forward contract: Definition
• Contract whereby parties are committed: – to buy (sell) – an underlying asset – at some future date (maturity) – at a delivery price (forward price) set in advance
• The forward price for a contract is the delivery price that would be applicable to the contract if were negotiated today (i.e., it is the delivery price that would make the contract worth exactly zero)
• The forward price may be different for contracts of different maturities
• Buying forward = "LONG" position • Selling forward = "SHORT" position • When contract initiated: No cash flow • Obligation to transact
February 4, 2013 Derivatives 01 Introduction |15
Forward contract: example
• Underlying asset: Gold • Spot price: $1,750 / troy ounce • Maturity: 6-month • Size of contract: 100 troy ounces (2,835 grams) • Forward price: $1,760 / troy ounce
Spot price 1,560 1,660 1,760 1,860 1,960 Buyer (long) -20,000 -10,000 0 +10,000 +20,000 Seller (short) +20,000 +10,000 0 -10,000 -20,000

Options: definitions
• A call (put) contract gives to the owner – the right : – to buy (sell) – an underlying asset (stocks, bonds, portfolios,..) – on or before some future date (maturity)
• on : "European" option • before: "American" option
• at a price set in advance (the exercise price or striking price) • Buyer pays a premium to the seller (writer)

Derivatives Markets
• Exchange traded – Traditionally exchanges have used the open-outcry system, but
increasingly they are switching to electronic trading – Contracts are standard there is virtually no credit risk
• Europe Eurex: http://www.eurexchange.com/ NYSE Euronext Liffe: http://www.liffe.com
• United States – CME Group http://www.cme.com
• Over-the-counter (OTC) – A computer- and telephone-linked network of dealers at financial
institutions, corporations, and fund managers – Contracts can be non-standard and there is some small amount of credit
risk

Credit Default Swaps
• A huge market • Buyer of the instrument acquires protection from the seller
against a default by a particular company or country (the reference entity)
• Example: Buyer pays a premium of 90 bps per year for $100 million of 5-year protection against company X
• Premium is known as the credit default spread. It is paid for life of contract or until default
• If there is a default, the buyer has the right to sell bonds with a face value of $100 million issued by company X for $100 million (Several bonds are typically deliverable)

Using derivatives
• Who? – Commercial banks – Large corporates – Central banks – Government – Fund managers – Pension funds
• Why? – To hedge risks – To speculate – To lock in an arbitrage
profit – To change the nature of a
liability – To change the nature of
an investment

Forward contract: Cash flows
• Notations ST Price of underlying asset at maturity Ft Forward price (delivery price) set at time t<T
Initiation Maturity T Long 0 ST - Ft Short 0 Ft - ST
• Initial cash flow = 0 :delivery price equals forward price.
• Credit risk during the whole life of forward contract. • Use of collateral to mitigate credit risk
February 4, 2013 Derivatives 01 Introduction |29
Forward contract: Locking in the result before maturity
• Enter a new forward contract in opposite direction.
• Ex: at time t1 : long forward at forward price F1
• At time t2 (<T): short forward at new forward price F2
• Gain/loss at maturity :
• (ST - F1) + (F2 - ST ) = F2 - F1 no remaining uncertainty
February 4, 2013 Derivatives 01 Introduction |30
Futures contract: Definition
• Institutionalized forward contract with daily settlement of gains and losses
• Forward contract – Buy ⇔ long – sell ⇔ short
• Standardized – Maturity, Face value of contract
• Traded on an organized exchange – Clearing house
• Daily settlement of gains and losses (Marked to market)
Example: Gold futures Trading unit: 100 troy ounces (2,835 grams)
February 4, 2013 Derivatives 01 Introduction |31
Futures: Daily settlement and the clearing house
• In a forward contract: – Buyer and seller face each other during the life of the contract – Gains and losses are realized when the contract expires – Credit risk
BUYER ⇔ SELLER • In a futures contract
– Gains and losses are realized daily (Marking to market) – The clearinghouse garantees contract performance : steps in to take a
position opposite each party BUYER ⇔ CH ⇔ SELLER
February 4, 2013 Derivatives 01 Introduction |32
Futures: Margin requirements
• INITIAL MARGIN : deposit to put up in a margin account • MAINTENANCE MARGIN : minimum level of the margin account • MARKING TO MARKET : balance in margin account adjusted daily
• Equivalent to writing a new futures contract every day at new futures price • (Remember how to close of position on a forward) • Note: timing of cash flows different

Valuing forward contracts: Key ideas
• Two different ways to own a unit of the underlying asset at maturity: – 1.Buy spot (SPOT PRICE: S0) and borrow
=> Interest and inventory costs – 2. Buy forward (AT FORWARD PRICE F0)
• VALUATION PRINCIPLE: NO ARBITRAGE • In perfect markets, no free lunch: the 2 methods should cost the same.
You can think of a derivative as a mixture of its constituent underliers, much as a cake is a mixture of eggs, flour and milk in carefully specified proportions. The derivative’s model provide a recipe for the mixture, one whose ingredients’ quantity vary with time. Emanuel Derman, Market and models, Risk July 2001

Discount factors and interest rates
• Review: Present value of Ct • PV(Ct) = Ct × Discount factor
• With annual compounding:
• Discount factor = 1 / (1+r)t
• With continuous compounding: • Discount factor = 1 / ert = e-rt
February 4, 2013 Derivatives 01 Introduction |38
Forward contract valuation : No income on underlying asset
• Example: Gold (provides no income + no storage cost) • Current spot price S0 = $1,340/oz • Interest rate (with continuous compounding) r = 3% • Time until delivery (maturity of forward contract) T = 1
• Forward price F0 ?
Strategy 2: buy spot and borrow
Buy spot -1,340 + ST
Borrow +1,340 -1,381
0 ST -1,381
Strategy 1: buy forward
0 ST –F0
t = 0 t = 1

Forward price and value of forward contract
• Forward price:
• Remember: the forward price is the delivery price which sets the value of a forward contract equal to zero.
• Value of forward contract with delivery price K
• You can check that f = 0 for K = S0 e r T
rTeSF 00 =
rTKeSf −−= 0
February 4, 2013 Derivatives 01 Introduction |40
Arbitrage
• If F0 ≠ S0 e rT : arbitrage opportunity
• Cash and carry arbitrage if: F0 > S0 e rT
• Borrow S0, buy spot and sell forward at forward price F0
• Reverse cash and carry arbitrage if S0 e rT > F0 • Short asset, invest and buy forward at forward price F0
February 4, 2013 Derivatives 01 Introduction |41
Arbitrage: examples
• Gold – S0 = 1,750, r = 1.14%, T = 1 S0 erT = 1,770
• If forward price =1,800 • Buy spot -1,750 +S1
• Borrow +1,750 -1,770 • Sell forward 0 +1,800 – S1
• Total 0 + 30 • If forward price = 1,700
• Sell spot +1,750 -S1
• Invest -1,750 +1,770 • Buy forward 0 S1 – 1,700 • Total 0 + 70
