Interest Rates
What are interest rates?
Interest rate products are often used by investors as well as banks and companies to hedge the risk of moves in interest rates.
Interest rates are ususally traded as futures contracts or over-the-counter (OTC) between counterparties. An interest rate future is a futures contract in which the buyer and seller agree that an interest-bearing asset will be delivered.
The price of an interest rate future reflects sentiment about what the market expects on contract expiry date.
