金融衍生品的产生原意是要减少、规避和转移金融活动中的各种风险,但由于衍生品本身的杠杆作用和定价的困难,往往在实际操作中成为金融风险的来源。随着中国金融期货交易所筹备工作的进展,中国金融衍生品已经呼之欲出。对于投资者来说,这既是一个增加投资品种的机会,同时也面临更多层次的风险,需要谨慎对待。 The original intention of financial derivatives is to reduce, circumvent and transfer various risks in financial activities, but due to their own leverage and pricing difficulties, derivatives often become sources of financial risk in practice. With the progress of preparatory work for China Financial Futures Exchange, China’s financial derivatives are ready to come out. For investors, this is not only an opportunity to increase the investment variety, but also faces more levels of risk and needs to be treated with caution.
