Exchange Traded vs OTC Derivatives Market As the word suggests, derivatives that trade on an exchange are called exchange traded derivatives, where as privately negotiated derivative contracts are called OTC contracts. The former have rigid structures compared to the latter.

Slide 4: 

OTC derivatives markets have the following features compared to exchange traded derivatives : The management of counter-party risk is decentralized and located within individual institutions. There are no formal centralized limits on individual positions, leverage, or margining There are no formal rules for risk and burden sharing, 4. There are no formal rules or mechanisms for ensuring market stability and integrity, and for safeguarding the collective interests of market participants, and 5. The OTC contracts are generally not regulated by a regulatory authority and the exchange’s self –regulatory organisation, although they are affected indirectly by national legal systems, banking supervision and market surveillance.

Types of derivatives

Forward Contract : 

Forward Contract “A Forward Contract is an agreement to buy or sell an asset on a specified date for a specified price. Salient Features : They are bilateral Contracts and hence exposed to counter party risk. Each contract is custom designed, and hence is unique in terms of contract size, expiration date and the asset type and quality. 3. The contract price is generally not available in public domain On the expiration date, the contract has to be settled by delivery of the asset. 5. If the party wishes to reverse the contract, it has to compulsorily go to the same counter-party, which often results in high prices being charged.

Limitations of Forward Markets : 

Limitations of Forward Markets Lack of centralisation of trading Illiquidity Counterparty risk

Futures markets were designed to solve the problems that exist in forward markets. A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell an asset at a certain time in the future at a certain price. But unlike forward contracts, the futures contracts are standardized and exchange traded. :

Call Option : 

Call Option In-the-Money (ITM) Strike price < Spot price(current price) At-the-Money (ATM) Strike price = Spot price Out-of-the-Money (OTM) Strike price >Spot price

OPTIONS PAYOFFS

Payoff profile for buyer of call options: Long callThe figure shows the profits/losses for the buyer of a three-month Nifty 2250 call option. As can be seen, as the spot Nifty rises, the call option is in-the-money. If upon expiration, Nifty closes above the strike of 2250, the buyer would exercise his option and profit to the extent of the difference between the Nifty-close and the strike price. The profits possible on this option are potentially unlimited. However if Nifty falls below the strike of 2250, he lets the option expire. His losses are limited to the extent of the premium he paid for buying the option. :
