History of Derivatives Transactions Chapter 1 The term “derivatives” is used for financial instruments that “derive” from financial assets, meaning those that have securities such as shares or bonds as their underlying assets or financial transactions that use a reference indicator such as interest rates or exchange rates. Today the term “derivative” is used widely throughout society and not just on the financial markets. Although there has been criticism that they amplify financial risks and have a harmful impact on the Chapter 2 economy, derivatives are an indispensable requirement in supporting finance in the present age, and have become accepted as the leading edge of financial innovation.

    Central Bank of Ireland Contracts for Difference Intervention Measure pursuant to Article 42 of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council Contents Introduction………………………………………………………………..……………….…...1 PART A Evidence upon which each of the conditions in Art 42 (2) of MiFIR are met………..5 PART B Central Bank of Ireland Product Intervention Measure……………..…….……..…..33 The Central Bank CFD Measure Central Bank of Ireland Page 1 Introduction: Central Bank of Ireland Contracts for Difference Intervention Measure Introduction 1. In recent years, the Central Bank of Ireland (Central Bank) has increased its focus on the sale of speculative products to retail clients, including: a. conducting thematic reviews in relation to contracts for difference (CFDs), b. publishing a consultation paper setting out its concerns in relation to CFDs and outlining proposed measures aimed at protecting the interests of retail clients (CP 107), and c. working closely with the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) on its work on CFDs, binary options and other speculative products. 2. On 27 March 2018, the Central Bank issued a warning to investors on CFDs and binary options. The Central Bank has previously highlighted the risks associated with these speculative products and has published European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) warnings about CFDs, binary options and other speculative products in 2013 and 2016. 3. The Central Bank has significant investor protection concerns from the sale of CFDs to retail clients. The Central Bank’s concerns stem from the complexity and lack of transparency of these products, their excessive leverage, the disparity between the expected return and the risk of loss, the level of sophistication of investors and issues relating to their marketing and distribution.

  • RISK DISCLOSURE: Derivatives 1
    RISK DISCLOSURE: derivatives 1. A derivative is a financial instrument: (a) whose value changes in response to the change in a specified interest rate, security price, commodity price, foreign exchange rate, index of prices, a credit rating, or similar variable (the underlying); (b) that requires no initial net investment or little initial net investment relative to other types of contracts that have similar responses to changes in market conditions; and (c) that is settled at a future date. Common types of exchange‐traded derivatives are futures and options. 2. A futures contract is a legally binding agreement between two parties to purchase or sell in the future a specific quantity of underlying asset at a certain price. The price at which the contract trades (the contract price) is determined by relative buying and selling interest on the market. Futures contracts may be settled either by physical delivery of the underlying security or settled through cash settlement. Futures contracts can be used for speculation, hedging, and risk management. Futures contracts do not provide capital growth or income. 3. Futures trading is speculative and highly volatile. Price movements for futures are influenced by, among other things, government trade, fiscal, monetary and exchange control programs and policies; weather and climate conditions; changing supply and demand relationships; national and international political and economic events; changes in interest rates; and the psychological emotions of the market place. None of these factors can be controlled by us and no assurances can be given that trade results will be profitable for you or that you will not incur substantial losses.

Historical futures data is calibrated to a multi-factor forward curve model based on Clewlow and Strickland (2000), and the model is fitted, based on Sollie (2013)'s approach, to al- low for non-constant volatility. An asymmetric generalized autoregressive heteroskedastic model based on Nelson (1991), and principal component analysis is performed to find key common factor explaining the forward curve dynamics. The model is used to draw realisations of the forward curves for Brent and West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oils, and three selected realisations are further analysed. Sensitivity analysis is performed on the expected prices at Day 1, and options are priced on the Brent/WTI futures spread with Monte Carlo Simulations.
