Futures and options markets extend across a wide range of products. Fixed income markets and equity markets. Energy markets and metal markets. Agricultural markets and softs. Futures markets are both institutional and retail, domestic and international in scope. They are highly flexible, sophisticated risk management tools and attractive speculative investments. Futures markets offer standardized contracts, multilateral clearing and settlement, anonymous trading, mark-to-market pricing and are internationally recognized as a price discovery mechanism. Corporate treasurers, institutional investors, commercial hedgers, proprietary traders, individual investors, commodity trading advisors, commodity pool operators and hedge funds all take advantage of opportunities in these markets. FIA’s core members are intermediaries who provide trading and clearing support for institutional and public customers on international derivatives exchanges. FIA represents its members’ views before legislators, regulators, self-regulators and other policy makers to influence the development of industry rules and practices.
