    Can anyone explain futures to me. Every time I try a question (from BPP) I get completely lost.
    Thanks

    It is very hard to explain futures quickly in an answer on here. Basically, the financial manager gambles on futures to cancel the risk on the underlying transaction.

    Have you watched my lectures on here on currency and interest rate futures?

    Also, if you look at the revision notes on here, you will find questions on both with detailed worked answers.
