What are interest rate derivatives?
Interest rate derivatives are financial products used for trading that ‘derive’ their underlying value from the interest rate. With them, you can speculate on the short-term interest rates for global rates, going long or short for a profit or loss.

Why trade CFDs?
- Use leverage for a decreased initial outlay*
- Deal on rising and falling markets
- Trade 17,000 markets
- Use prices based on the underlying market
*CFD trading involves high risk. That’s because leverage can magnify both your profits and your losses as they’ll be based on the full exposure to the trade, not just the initial margin deposit required to open it. This means losses as well as profits could far outweigh your margin, so always ensure you’re trading within your means.

|---|---|
| US 30-Day Fed Funds Rate | 1.6 |

Interest rate CFD product details
With CFDs, the difference in the underlying interest rate’s price from when you opened your position versus when you’ve closed it determines your profit – or loss. Interest Rate CFDs Futures are charged in the spread, so you’ll pay no commission charges.
