About the Futures Market

Futures contracts are derivative instruments that are standardized in quality, quantity and delivery in order to facilitate trading. They are derived from traditional commodities as well as other non-traditional asset classes and are traded on various exchanges around the world on margin basis.

The buyer of a futures contract has the obligation to take delivery of the underlying asset as per the contractual terms of the exchange. Conversely, the seller must deliver the underlying product or instrument under the terms of the contract. Of course both parties may dissolve their commitment by closing out their contracts prior to settlement date. If the futures contract is cash-settled, the trader who sustains a loss must consequently settle with the clearing house (usually part of the exchange), which acts as a guarantor and transfers the funds to the trader who made a profit.
