What are derivatives?[edit]

See derivative (finance). --Legis (talk - contributions) 15:11, 29 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Participant categories[edit]

I would suggest that “investors” are a fifth class of participants in derivatives markets. “Investors” may not be included in the cited source, but it is nonetheless true. 2601:647:401:CAF0:0:0:0:D6D8 (talk) 02:33, 30 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
