derivative
A financial instrument whose value is based on the value of an underlying security, such as a commodity, currency, or bond. The most common derivatives are futures, options, and swaps. They are used to manage risk and fluctuations in the value of the underlying security but are often risky and complicated investments.

derivative
A derivative, derivatives or derivative contracts are financial instruments whose value derives from the value and characteristics of underlying products. The underlying assets (often referred to as the "underlying" or "underlier") are extremely varied and range from commodities, currencies and indices to individual shares. The main feature of a derivative is that it allows the user to take an exposure in relation to the underlying asset without actually requiring a direct investment in it. Derivatives include futures, options and swaps.
For UK corporation tax purposes, derivative contracts are defined as contracts that satisfy the conditions contained in Schedule 26 to the Finance Act 2002.
