"TurkDEX-ISE 100" Futures

Overview

We all would like to invest our savings in places which give us the highest return. T-bills and equities are the first classical investment tools that you might think of. With the introduction of the ISE-100 Index Future contract, investors will have the chance to invest on the direction of the whole economy. If they think that there will be good progress at the pace of the economy, they will buy the index; otherwise they will short the index.

Investors will also be able to use the leverage effect of the equity index contract. By depositing only 10% of the contract value, they will have a much bigger position.

On the other hand, fund managers might also use this contract to hedge their spot equity portfolio against the price declines by going short at the futures market.
