Bond investment using futures contract

You learned about bonds. But could you try to invest in bonds? If your job is related to bond investment, you probably did. But if your job is not a bond portfolio manager, perhaps, most of you could not even think about doing it. Why? Probably, it was because of capital requirement and access for over the counter product trading. We can solve these two restrictions very easily by using futures that require very little capital (for instance, you will need about 6-7% of actual capital for trading U.S. Treasury bond futures.) and are an exchange-traded product.

Futures are handy instruments for the savvy individual investors, but it is also a crucial instrument for professional fund managers to increase capital efficiency. When you always hear about how fund managers are not good enough, you might wonder about world top managers who deliver reliable performance over the decades. It comes from disciplined investment strategy management and the use of appropriate investment instruments, including derivatives. It also comes from the fact that derivatives require much smaller capital and know how to use it effectively. In this course, we will discuss the most used derivatives by institutional and individual investors, futures and investment strategies you can implement using futures.

This course is different from the financial economics courses you took from the university or other online sites. The course starts with the basics of the futures and bonds and leads to the example of commonly used bond trading strategies.
