Le «contrat standardisé», dont les modalités sont fixées par une bourse, se distingue du «contrat de gré à gré», celui-ci étant assorti de conditions sur mesure négociées directement entre les parties au contrat. Dans la majorité des cas, il y a dénouement avant l'échéance, sans qu'il y ait livraison du sous-jacent. Parmi les «contrats à terme standardisés», on distingue les «contrats à terme sur devises, les «contrats à terme sur taux d'intérêt», les «contrats à terme sur indice boursier» et les «contrats à terme sur marchandises». 2, record 1, French, - contrat%20%C3%A0%20terme%20standardis%C3%A9
