EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A derivative is a product whose value is derived from the value of one or more underlying
variables or assets in a contractual manner. The underlying asset can be equity, forex, commodity or any other asset. They may take the form of forwards, futures, option or swap. The
three main players in the derivatives market consist of hedgers, speculators and arbitrageurs. In India, we have index futures as the first step towards building a more liquid market.
In India, NSE has introduced index futures contract based on S&P CNX Nifty. The S&P CNX
Nifty futures are traded on NSE as one, two and three-month contracts. Whereas BSE has introduced index futures contract based on BSE-30 Sensex. They are contracts whose underlying is the value of the index at any point in time. At the time of delivery, the trade is settled in cash. Trading in index futures is not just to hedge market risk; it can well be a source of profit through arbitrage. There are arbitrage opportunities in index futures, just as in stocks.
Financial innovation that led to the issuance and trading of derivative products has been an
important boost to the development of financial markets. While the benefits stemming from the economic functions performed by derivative securities have been discussed and proven by academics, there is increasing concern within the financial community that the growth of the derivatives markets - whether standardized or not - destabilizes the economy.
The Derivatives Committee strongly favors the introduction of financial derivatives in order to provide the facility for hedging in the most cost-efficient way against market risk. This is an important economic purpose. At the same time, it recognizes that in order to make hedging possible, the market should also have speculators who are prepared to be counter-parties to hedgers. And if sufficient numbers of hedgers with genuine hedging needs are not there and we still introduce futures market, then we would end up having only speculators. Such a futures market would be devoid of any connection with the cash or the spot market and would have its
own life full of speculation and bubbles. So now the question arises, do Indian investors need futures trading? If trading in index futures is advocated on the basis of hedging needs of investors, one must assess the market demand and supply source for trading in the market risk before introducing the index futures.
The desirability of successful derivatives, such as futures trading, depends crucially on the solidity and maturity of cash markets in underlying securities. To make cash markets robust and effective, first let us put in place the mechanism of margin trading, short sale, dematerialized
settlement and electronic transfer of funds among market participants.
