Bridging the gap
The derivatives market is the financial market for derivatives, financial instruments like futures contracts or options, which are derived from other forms of assets and hence they have been named derivatives.
One common application in the derivatives market, is to invest in index derivatives. Now, what does this mean? Index derivatives are financial instruments that derive their value from a market index. In India, this could mean the underlying asset is either based on the NSE NIFTY or the BSE SENSEX.
