Derivatives are financial contracts, such as options, futures, and swaps, whose value is derived from an underlying asset like a stock, bond, currency, or commodity. Traders and investors use them to hedge risk, speculate on price movements, or gain leveraged exposure to markets without owning the underlying asset directly.
