Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of problems and prospects for the development of the financial derivatives market. The relevance of the chosen topic is explained by the fact that the globalization of the economic space contributes to the transformation of the stock market into the main source of capital allocation, but the current conditions of the derivatives market in Ukraine do not meet the needs of the development of the national economy, which requires strengthening the regulation of their activities in order to ensure the hedging of the risks of market participants. The object of research is financial derivatives as a source of attracting additional investments and globalization of financial flows. The purpose of the research is to study the features, advantages and disadvantages of derivative financial instruments, to evaluate the possibilities of their use in different price situations in order to increase the efficiency of the derivatives market in Ukraine. Research methods – method of system analysis, method of analysis and synthesis, method of statistical analysis and method of comparison. In the course of the study, the dynamics of derivatives trading on the global stock market were analyzed and the dynamics of global exchange trading of financial derivatives were assessed, and the turnover of OTC derivative financial instruments in the EU countries was analyzed. Dynamic changes in the sums paid under the terms of the contracts for derivative securities in the world in terms of terms of validity, regions and sectors were also investigated; dynamics of options and futures trading on the global stock market. In the financial market of Ukraine, an analysis of the volumes of derivatives trade was carried out, the volume of trades on the exchange and over-the-counter markets was estimated, the dynamics of the volumes of exchange contracts and the share of trades in financial instruments on the securities market were given. Factors restraining the development of the derivative securities market in Ukraine have been identified, namely: deficiencies in legislation, the level of development of the infrastructure of the derivative securities market, as well as the current state of development of the underlying asset markets. Based on the analysis of the derivative financial instruments market, prospects for its development have been developed. Conclusions – the main measures regarding the future development of the financial derivatives market in Ukraine should be: comprehensive regulation of the functioning of the derivatives market, ensuring the operation of regulated markets and developing their infrastructure, introducing appropriate tools for the protection of participants and risk hedging. On the basis of taking into account the international experience of the use of derivatives in Ukraine, it is necessary to create an effective developed financial market, and such a segment of it as the derivatives market, in order to become a worthy competitor on the global financial market
