Airgeadas Comhaontas ar mhéid seasta de thráchtearra, d'airgeadra, nó d'urrús ar leith a dhíol nó a cheannach lena sheachadadh ar dháta seasta sa todhchaí ar phraghas seasta. Murab ionann agus rogha (nó céadrogha), bíonn ceannach nó díol cinnte i gceist i gconradh todhchaíochtaí; d'fhéadfadh caillteanas, a bheadh neamhtheoranta go poitéinsiúil, a tharlú dá bharr.
Finance An agreement to buy or sell a fixed quantity of a particular commodity, currency, or security for delivery at a fixed date in the future at a fixed price. Unlike an option, a futures contract involves a definite purchase or sale and not an option to buy or sell; it may therefore entail a potentially unlimited loss.
