Do you want to understand how to transform the way your company deals with buying and selling commodities? Futures contracts could be the key to guaranteeing prices, minimizing risks and maximizing profits. Find out how this powerful financial tool can benefit your business.

What are Futures Contracts?

Futures contracts are financial agreements between two parties to buy or sell a specific asset on a predefined future date at a price agreed at the time of negotiation.

These contracts are linked to major assets such as commodities, indices, interest rates, foreign currencies, among others.

Futures contracts are widely used as a strategy by import and export companies and farmers, serving as a hedge against variations in asset prices.

They are therefore widely used in commodities markets such as sugar, coffee, soybeans, corn, oil, gold and many others.

Advantages of Futures Contracts

1. Protection against price volatility: By fixing a future price for the purchase or sale of commodities, your company protects itself against unwanted fluctuations in the market. This is especially useful in volatile markets, where prices can change rapidly due to economic, political or environmental factors.

2. Efficient Financial Planning: With a fixed future price, your company can better plan its financial and commercial operations, ensuring greater stability and predictability in business.
   

3. Taking advantage of market opportunities: In addition to protecting against risks, futures contracts offer opportunities to take advantage of favorable market movements. With a well-defined strategy, you can position yourself to maximize your profits in favorable market conditions.

4. Legal Compliance: We ensure that your future contracts are fully compliant with current legislation, avoiding legal and regulatory problems that may arise.
