Abstract
Financial derivatives have a vast economic literature and an extensive collection of studies on directly or indirectly related topics. However, such instruments suffer from a dearth of doctrine. Against this background, this dissertation is essentially divided into two parts, a historical and economic overview of the subject and, subsequently, a presentation of the general aspects of the legal regime of futures contracts and its framework in Portuguese and international accounting standards.| Date of Award | 5 Feb 2024 |
