The document provides an overview of derivatives, including their basic uses and types. Derivatives are financial instruments whose value is based on an underlying asset. They are used for hedging risk exposure and speculation. Common types of derivatives include futures, forwards, options, and swaps. Options give the buyer the right but not obligation to buy or sell an asset, while futures and forwards require the exchange of the asset. Swaps involve exchanging cash flows over time, such as interest rates or currencies.
