Derivatives are increasingly suggested for – and used by, Pension Funds to hedge or protect portfolios as well in some cases, to generate income.

Since these are products are unusual and can be complex the result is often bewilderment and confusion on the side of Trustees.

The most common Derivatives used are Futures and Options and this seminar aims to explain individually:

 - what Futures and Options are

 - how they work

 - their most common uses in Pension Fund Investment.

No prior knowledge is assumed but participants should have a basic knowledge of Bonds (Fixed Income) and Equity Investments.
