Traditional Options Sample Clauses

Traditional Options. A particular type of option (called a “traditional option”) is written by certain London Stock Exchange firms under special exchange rules. These may involve greater risk than other options. Two way prices are not usually quoted and there is no exchange market on which to close out an open position. It may be difficult to assess the value of a traditional option or for the seller of such an option to manage his exposure to risk. Again, the Investment Adviser should only provide for the Investment Guidelines to permit the Local Manager to invest in “traditional options” if the Investment Adviser is fully aware of the risks involved.

Traditional Options. Certain South African Stock Exchange firms under special exchange rules write a particular type of option called a “traditional option”. These may involve greater risk than other options. Two-way prices are not usually quoted and there is no exchange market on which to close out an open position or to affect an equal and opposite transaction to reverse an open position. It may be difficult to assess its value or for the seller of such an option to manage its exposure to risk. Certain options markets operate on a margined basis, under which buyers do not pay the full premium on their option at the time they purchase it. In this situation the Client may subsequently be called upon to pay margin on the option up to the level of its premium. If the Client fails to do so as required, the Client's position may be closed or liquidated in the same way as a futures position.

Traditional Options. Certain London Stock Exchange member firms under special exchange rules write a particular type of option called a 'traditional option'. These may involve greater risk than other options. Two-way prices are not usually quoted and there is no exchange market on which to close out an open position or to effect an equal and opposite transaction to reverse an open position. It may be difficult to assess its value or for the seller of such an option to manage his exposure to risk. Certain options markets operate on a margined basis, under which buyers do not pay the full premium on their option at the time they purchase it. In this situation you may subsequently be called upon to pay margin on the option up to the level of your premium. If you fail to do so as required, your position may be closed or liquidated in the same way as a futures position. Futures and options contracts can also be referred to as contracts for differences. These can be options and futures on the FTSE 100 index or any other index, as well as currency and interest rate swaps. However, unlike other futures and options, these contracts can only be settled in cash. Investing in a contract for differences carries the same risks as investing in a future or an option and you should be aware of these. Transactions in contracts for differences may also have a contingent liability and you should be aware of the implications. It may not always be apparent whether or not a particular derivative is arranged on exchange or in an off-exchange derivative transaction. Your Manager must make it clear to you if you are entering into an off-exchange derivative transaction. While some off-exchange markets are highly liquid, transactions in off-exchange or 'non transferable' derivatives may involve greater risk than investing in on-exchange derivatives because there is no exchange market on which to close out an open position. It may be impossible to liquidate an existing position, to assess the value of the position arising from an off-exchange transaction or to assess the exposure to risk. Bid prices and offer prices need not be quoted, and, even where they are, they will be established by dealers in these instruments and consequently it may be difficult to establish what a fair price is. Foreign markets will involve different risks from the UK markets. In some cases the risks will be greater. On request, your Manager must provide an explanation of the relevant risks and protections (if any) which will ope...
