There are 3 different types of forward pricing: (1) Forward contracts (which include cash forward contracts, minimum price forward contracts and deferred pricing contracts) (2) Futures Contracts and (3) Option Contracts. A forward contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell an asset at an agreed future point in time. The trade date and delivery date are separated. A futures contract is a standardized forward contract that is traded on an exchange, like SAFEX. Other than forward contracts, futures contracts are not linked with specific buyers. The intermediary between buyers and sellers is a clearing house that ensures that contracts held for delivery are fulfilled. Options contract convey the right, but not the obligation, to buy (call option) or sell (put option) at a specified price during a specified period of time.
