ROTMAN SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT, UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO John Hull is an internationally recognized authority on derivatives and risk management. His work has an applied focus. His areas of research have included the impact of stochastic volatility on the pricing and hedging of options, the valuation of interest rate and credit derivatives, the calculation of value at risk, and the evaluation of model risk. He was, with Alan White, one of the winners of the Nikko-LOR research competition for his work on the Hull-White interest rate model. In 1999 he was voted Financial Engineer of the Year by the IAFE and has won many teaching awards. He has written three books: “Risk Management and Financial Institutions” (now in its 3rd edition), “Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives” (now in its 8th edition) and “Fundamentals of Futures and Options Markets” (now in its 8th edition) which are widely used in trading rooms and classrooms throughout the world. Dr. Hull is co-director of Rotman’s Master of Finance program and has also taught at York University, University of British Columbia, New York University, Cranfield University, and London Business School.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Loyola University Chicago Law Journal by an authorized administrator of LAW eCommons. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Derivatives: A Twenty-First Century Understanding Timothy E. Lynch* Derivatives are commonly defined as some variationof the following: financial instruments whose value is derivedfrom the performance of a secondary source such as an underlying bond, commodity, or index. This definition is both over-inclusive and under-inclusive. Thus, not surprisingly, even many policy makers, regulators, and legal analysts misunderstand them. It is important for interested parties such as policy makers to understand derivatives because the types and uses of derivatives have exploded in the last few decades and because these financial instruments can provide both social benefits and cause social harms. This Article presents a framework for understanding modern derivatives by identifying the characteristicsthat all derivatives share. All derivatives are contracts between two counterparties in which the payoffs to andfrom each counterparty depend on the outcome of one or more extrinsic, future, uncertain event or metric and in which each counterparty expects (or takes) such outcome to be opposite to that expected (or taken) by the other counterparty.

  • Inflation Derivatives
    Inflation Derivatives Graduation Thesis Financial Engineering and Management A research on the implementation of inflation derivatives within pension funds Supervisors: Dr. D.Y. Dupont Dr. R. A. M. G. Joosten Dr. B. Roorda Drs. P. Bajema Author: C.F.A.R. Wanningen Company: Blue Sky Group Date: July 2007 Preface his thesis about inflation derivatives is the result of a six-month research which started in February and ended in July at pension fund provider Blue TSky Group. During this period I conducted a literature research on inflation linked products and developed a pricing model. Moreover I visited investment banks in London and the Euromoney Inflation Linked Products Conference 2007 in Frankfurt. The visits provided me with valuable information insights and business experience. Furthermore conversations with specialists working at Blue Sky Group and investment banks helped me to understand how inflation linked products are traded in the marketplace. By writing this preface I would gladly grasp the opportunity to thank persons who made a contribution to this thesis. From the University of Twente I would like to thank Dr. D.Y. Dupont, Dr. R.A.M.G. Joosten and Dr. B. Roorda. Dr. Dupont supervised the research and gave information insights during the first months. Dr. Roorda supervised the research throughout the whole period and initiated useful discussions on inflation. Dr. Joosten supervised the research during the last months and gave supportive suggestions on writing a thesis. From Blue Sky Group I would like to give thanks to Drs. P. Bajema, Drs. J.F. van Halewijn and A.A.M.
