Launch of Small Cap futures, rollover and options
The volumes of ETFs tied to the Small Cap Index (SMLL B3) have shown significant evolution in recent years. To increase exposure alternatives to the Index, which tracks shares of companies with a small market value, B3 will launch three new products:
• Small Cap Futures Contract
• Small Cap Rollover
• Small Cap Options
These products complement the shelf of derivatives tied to Brazilian indices, allowing the diversification of strategies and their use as a hedge instrument against price fluctuations in the spot market.

The new products are scheduled to hit the market in the third quarter of 2024.
These derivatives expand exposure opportunities to a relevant index in the Brazilian market – SMLL B3. Until now, such exposure was only possible through Small Cap ETFs. Furthermore, they complement the shelf of products tied to local indices, serving to diversify strategies and hedge against fluctuations in the Brazilian market.
The products work in a similar manner to the Ibovespa Futures and Ibovespa Options indices with the specificities of SMLL B3 and the Small Cap contract (index point value and tick size).
The purpose of SMLL B3 is to be the average performance index of the quotations of a theoretical portfolio of assets composed of shares and units of smaller capitalization companies listed on B3. Learn more.
