    Complex derivatives are one of the hottest areas on Wall Street. While traditional futures and options continue to be used extensively, more and more financial professionals are opting fro new and more complex derivative products, such as swaptions, caps and floors. These new products, because they can be custom-designed for specific-needs, are particularly well suited for today's demanding financial markets.

    - Regulation of complex derivatives
