Course details
Understanding currency, equity index, and interest rate futures and forwards is crucial for finance and accounting professionals, because these tools are often used to manage financial risk, improve forecasting accuracy, and optimize investment strategies. Knowledge of these instruments helps professionals hedge against market volatility, manage exposure to interest rate or currency fluctuations, and make informed decisions on pricing assets and liabilities. It also allows them to advise clients or companies on risk management and enhance the financial stability of their portfolios. In this course, designed by Corporate Finance Institute (CFI), discover the essentials of currency futures, equity index futures, and interest rate futures and forwards. Along the way, gather insights into key financial concepts such as cross rates, triangular arbitrage, currency swaps, forward rate agreements (FRAs), short-term interest rate futures (STIRs), interest rate swaps (IRSs), and more.
