These products offer a unique approach to protecting one’s portfolio and making strategic bets on future market volatility. However, lack of understanding of these products can be potentially dangerous as they can change dramatically in value within extremely short time-frames. Investors must be wary of using these products improperly; failure to adequately assess the risk of using volatility products can deliver devastating losses to one’s portfolio.

  • Glossary of Bond Terms
    Glossary of Bond Terms Accreted value- The current value of your zero-coupon municipal bond, taking into account interest that has been accumulating and automatically reinvested in the bond. Accrual bond- Often the last tranche in a CMO, the accrual bond or Z-tranche receives no cash payments for an extended period of time until the previous tranches are retired. While the other tranches are outstanding, the Z-tranche receives credit for periodic interest payments that increase its face value but are not paid out. When the other tranches are retired, the Z-tranche begins to receive cash payments that include both principal and continuing interest. Accrued interest- (1) The dollar amount of interest accrued on an issue, based on the stated interest rate on that issue, from its date to the date of delivery to the original purchaser. This is usually paid by the original purchaser to the issuer as part of the purchase price of the issue; (2) Interest deemed to be earned on a security but not yet paid to the investor. Active tranche- A CMO tranche that is currently paying principal payments to investors. Adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM)- A mortgage loan on which interest rates are adjusted at regular intervals according to predetermined criteria. An ARM's interest rate is tied to an objective, published interest rate index. Amortization- Liquidation of a debt through installment payments. Arbitrage- In the municipal market, the difference in interest earned on funds borrowed at a lower tax-exempt rate and interest on funds that are invested at a higher-yielding taxable rate.

Newer examples include structured notes, which are securities whose interest or principal payments depend on market conditions, such as floating rate notes and inverse floaters. Swaps of various kinds are also derivatives. Various kinds of derivative are described by Hull, with both details of how their markets operate and the theory of pricing. 1.1 Exchange-Traded versus Over-the-Counter A significant distinction is that between exchange-traded and over-the-counter (\OTC") derivatives. Derivatives that are traded on an exchange are stan- dardized to promote liquidity. They are \marked to market" as of the close of business every day, and the holder's brokerage account is credited or deb- ited with the day's change in value. The holder is required to keep cash or securities in the account sufficient to cover the next day's possible losses with a very high level of probability; this margin protects the other partici- pants against default by the holder of an \out of the money" position. Each instrument is a contract between the holder and the exchange.
