This highly practical 2 day course conducted by a former City trader and derivatives specialist focuses on explaining different types of derivatives, their characteristics, pricing strategies and use by various market players.
You will learn about the ‘delta-1’ products, which include: forwards, futures, swaps and options and explore option valuation and risk measurement techniques.
During the second day you will learn more in depth about some well-known option pricing models: The Cox, Ross, Rubenstein Binomial Model (1979) is an intuitive model that tries to explain the Black-Scholes model (1973). Both models will be explained using modern precise language rather than the usual 1970’s textbook one. Finally, you will learn about structured products to use in both vanilla and exotic building blocks.
By the end of this training you will:
¥ Gain a sound practical understanding of the derivatives instruments
¥ Know the fundamental applications of swaps, forwards, futures and
options
¥ Be able to use relevant pricing strategy
¥ Calculate risk and return measures
¥ Construct a pay/off profile of different options
¥ Understand trading and hedging techniques for options
