EURIBOR Futures and Options
Cost-efficient hedging of STIR risk
Eurex EURIBOR derivatives refer to the Euro Interbank offered rate, the benchmark of the euro money market. The EURIBOR is calculated and published by the European Banking Federation and is the rate at which euro interbank term deposits are offered between Eurozone banks. It features a term to maturity of three months.
We offer Three-month EURIBOR futures and options, and the one to four year mid curve options.
With Packs & Bundles and Strips in EURIBOR Futures, we deliver greater operational efficiencies for STIR (short-term interest rate) traders. Hedging in money market derivatives typically requires traders to either buy or sell several outright contracts with consecutive maturity dates at once. Packs & Bundles and Strips package successive contracts together in order to facilitate execution.
