內(nèi)容簡介：
Energy derivatives will be covered in a two-part structure. The lectures will cover the fundamentals of futures and options, the energy-related futures and options contracts traded on international exchanges (including the fuel oil contract on the Shanghai Futures Exchange), the roles of hedgers and speculators (with a focus on crude oil contracts traded on the NYMEX and the ICE exchanges), strategies that may be employed to mitigate risk using these instruments, and the potential for natural gas futures contracts in the Asia region.
