An agreement to buy or sell a set amount of a commodity or security in a designated future month at a price agreed upon today by the buyer and seller. A futures contract differs from an option because an option is the right to buy or sell, whereas a futures contract is the promise to actually make a transaction. A future is part of a class of securities called derivatives, so named because such securities derive their value from the worth of an underlying investment. BACK TO TOP
