Option
In the case of options (unlike futures) one party (the purchaser) has the right to choose whether or not to enter into the agreed transaction. The seller must comply with the purchaser’s wish. He is also referred to as the writer. In the same way as for futures, the underlying, the term and the strike price are specified in advance. A distinction is drawn between call and put options.
