Opening of Commodity Derivatives Options Series in T0

Informative

Simpler and smoother transactions

B3 opens new series of commodity derivatives options in T0

New series of commodity options can be opened throughout the day with cash settlement on the same day the buy and sell transaction is executed (T0).

The new functionality meets market demand and eliminates the need for advance requests to open settlement on the following day (T+1).

With this, B3 facilitates the closing of commodity derivatives trades, especially in cases where they are subject to the strike price (strike) previously agreed upon to buy or sell the underlying commodity.

Until now, the strike price could only be authorized in T+1 and investors ended up giving up on the transaction.

The project will allow the opening of new options series throughout the day in T0, thus eliminating the need for advance requests to open the following day (T+1).

Commodity derivatives options series are options contracts on the same underlying asset (corn, soybean, etc.) with the same expiration date. Each series includes contracts with different strike prices, allowing investors to choose the call or put option that best meets their expectations for the commodity price variation. Learn more.
