RE: HEDGE FUND: DERIVATIVES TRADING
Stock options are becoming a more common form of compensation for employees in the financial sector. These options reward employees for increasing the value of their companies stocks with the potential for significant rewards.
Stock options are a type of equity compensation that can be given to employees, or sold on the open market. They allow employees to buy stocks at a set price for a certain amount of time, during which their value may rise or fall. Why trade them? Stock options are attractive to investors because they provide the opportunity for high returns without the typical risk that comes with investing in stocks.
