1. HEDGING RISK EXPOSURE
DISADVANTAGE OF DERIVATIVES
Since the value of the derivatives is linked to the value of the
1. HIGH RISK
underlying asset, the contracts are primarily used for hedging risks.
FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT ⋅ ∙ ∘ ☽ ༓ ☾ ∘ ⋅ ⋅4th Year Business Administration⋅ ∙ ∘ ☽ ༓ ☾ ∘ ⋅ ⋅ Lambino, Syd Airol M.
The high volatility of derivatives exposes them to potentially huge
losses. The sophisticated design of the contracts makes the
valuation extremely complicated or even impossible. Thus, they
bear a high inherent risk.
2. SPECULATIVE FEATURES
Derivatives are widely regarded as a tool of speculation. Due to the
extremely risky nature of derivatives and their unpredictable
behavior, unreasonable speculation may lead to huge losses.
3. COUNTER-PARTY RISK
Although derivatives traded on the exchanges generally go through
a thorough due diligence process, some of the contracts traded over-
the-counter do not include a benchmark for due diligence. Thus,
there is a possibility of counter-party default.

o When the price of the underlying changes, the value of the
derivative also changes.
o A derivative is not a product. It is a contract that derives its
value from changes in the price of the underlying.
Example: the value of a gold futures contract is derived from the
value of the underlying asset i.e. gold.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE
The conversion of one country's currency into another. In a free
economy, a country's currency is valued according to the laws of
supply and demand. In other words, a currency's value can be
pegged to another country's currency, such as the U.S. dollar, or
even to a basket of currencies. A country's currency value may also
be set by the country's government.
Different Ways of Exchange Rates:
1. Direct Quotations
When the price of one unit of foreign currency is expressed in terms
of the domestic currency.

INTERBANK FOREIGN CURRENCY QUOTATION
There are two ways to state the exchange rate between two
currencies, in either American or European terms. Accordingly, we
need to designate one of the currencies as the “home” currency and
the other as the “foreign” currency. This designation is arbitrary.
