Abstract

This paper investigates the use of derivatives in risk management. Deriving the value from an underlying asset or an index representing assets, derivatives bear the ability to accelerate gains or losses for a small initial outlay thus assisting corporations to manage risk and return opportunities, while adding value to their operations.

Keywords: risk, forwards, futures, options, hedging, speculation, arbitrage.
