Financial futures market is the futures market for trading futures contracts related to the financial sector. It is a new type of financial derivatives market well developed in recent years. The financial futures market is similar to the futures market, but the underlying assets are financial products rather than physical products.

Financial futures markets offer financial institutions, corporations and individuals the opportunity to hedge or speculate on the price movement of financial products. The financial futures market also provides investors with an opportunity to profit from the price movements of financial instruments through leverage participation.

Financial futures products can be divided into three categories: commodity futures, equity index futures and interest rate futures.

Commodity futures are futures contracts whose underlying assets are commodities such as precious metals, agricultural products, energy and other industrial products. Equity index futures are futures contracts whose underlying assets are financial instruments such as stock market indices, debt market indices and foreign exchange indices. Interest rate futures are futures contracts whose underlying assets are interest rates (long-term and short-term).

In a financial futures market, participants usually trade these financial futures products on exchanges. Trading of financial futures products is conducted through a futures exchange or through bilateral over-the-counter OTC agreements. A large number of participants, including financial institutions, investment funds and individual investors, are involved in the trading of financial futures.

The financial futures market is an important form of financial derivatives. It has the advantage of liquidity and hedging ability, which makes it an important part of the modern financial system. It provides a platform for the trading of financial products and helps to optimize the management of funds and risks.
