Trading in derivatives
Trading of standardized derivatives are conducted at the Oslo Stock Exchange. Tailor made derivatives, also known as OTC derivatives, are traded in the Oslo Connect market place. Both market places are regulated by the Norwegian FSA and by separate rulebooks. Both markets are also supported by the Oslo Børs derivatives brokerage desk
Different terms and underlying instruments
Standardized derivatives have fixed terms and fixed underlying instruments. When trading in tailor made derivatives the parties agree on terms and underlying instruments by the conclusion of the agreement. Clearing of tailor made derivatives is optional, while all standardized derivatives are cleared.
