CONT

Les marchés dérivés existent sous forme «organisée» ou «de gré à gré», dits «OTC». Leur existence, leurs produits et l'évolution de ceux-ci dérivent, comme leur nom l'indique, des autres marchés [...] Les marchés dérivés ne servent pas à financer l'économie mais permettent de couvrir les risques de taux de change et de variation du cours des actions rencontrés sur les marchés de capitaux. On peut également y pratiquer l'arbitrage ou la spéculation.
