A financial instrument is a term used in finance to describe any tradable asset or contract that
represents a financial value. These instruments are used for various purposes in the financial
markets, including investment, hedging, and speculation. Financial instruments play a crucial role in
the global financial system by facilitating capital allocation, risk management, and investment
strategies. They are bought and sold in financial markets, allowing investors and institutions to
manage their financial assets and liabilities efficiently. The value and risk associated with financial
instruments can vary widely depending on the specific type and characteristics of the instrument.
