    You must watch the free lectures on interest rate futures and options – I cannot type out the whole lecture here – because all of these points are dealt with in detail in the lectures.

    Futures are always 3 month futures – all that means is the profit or loss is calculated as though it is for 3 months.
    We always deal in the future ending soonest after the date the loan starts.
    You always buy options (unless we are creating a collar) – the question is whether you buy a call option (which is the right to buy futures) or whether you buy a put option (which is the right to sell futures).
