The role of futures margins

Initial and maintenance margins are designed to ensure that neither the buyer nor seller pulls out of the agreement as the market value of their futures contracts fluctuates throughout its life.

  • The value of investments and any income will fluctuate (this may partly be the result of exchange rate fluctuations) and investors may not get back the full amount invested.

    Where Invesco has expressed views and opinions, these may change.
