Análisis de la aplicación de los productos derivados financieros y los beneficios al implantarse en el mercado bursátil ecuatoriano

Abstract

Currently Latin American countries such as Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Chile and Colombia have a derivatives market, which has been very helpful in the economy of these countries through the negotiation of derivative products, through standardized contracts which are used as an alternative to make investments at national and international level, with what these countries seek is to mitigate the risk of the variation in the price of products in the market. Ecuador has a bag of products in the city of Guayaquil, it is a private corporation which welcomes the agricultural and agro-industrial sectors in order to make a trade that generates confidence when offering their products. This bag of products generates great benefits among which are market transparency, facilitates exports and imports, etc. In Ecuador, if a derivative market could be implemented in the future as a mechanism for protection against financial risks through standardized contracts, where the price, quality, quantity, expiration, delivery and reception would be stipulated through the clearing house However, this market has not emerged due to factors such as lack of knowledge and lack of stock market culture, despite these limitations Ecuador does conduct negotiations with derivative products even though there is no formal market.
