Nasdaq Nordic is the common name for the subsidiaries of Nasdaq, Inc. that provide financial services and operate marketplaces for securities in the Nordic and Baltic countries.

In finance, a futures contract (more colloquially, futures) is a standardized forward contract which can be easily traded between parties other than the two initial parties to the contract.

The parties initially agree to buy and sell an asset for a price agreed upon today (the forward price), with delivery and payment occurring at a future point, the delivery date.

Because it is a function of an underlying asset, a futures contract is a derivative product.

In finance, an option is a contract which gives the buyer (the owner or holder of the option) the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an underlying asset or instrument at a specific strike price on a specified date, depending on the form of the option.

The strike price may be set by reference to the spot price (market price) of the underlying security or commodity on the day an option is taken out, or it may be fixed at a discount or at a premium.

The seller has the corresponding obligation to fulfill the transaction – to sell or buy – if the buyer (owner) "exercises" the option.

An option that conveys to the owner the right to buy at a specific price is referred to as a call; an option that conveys the right of the owner to sell at a specific price is referred to as a put.

Both are commonly used in and by the old traded, but the call option is more frequently discussed.

In finance, a bond is an instrument of indebtedness of the bond issuer to the holders.

The most common types of bonds include municipal bonds and corporate bonds.

It is a debt security, under which the issuer owes the holders a debt and, depending on the terms of the bond, is obliged to pay them interest (the coupon) and/or to repay the principal at a later date, termed the maturity date.

Interest is usually payable at fixed intervals (semiannual, annual, sometimes monthly).

Very often the bond is negotiable, that is, the ownership of the instrument can be transferred in the secondary market.

This means that once the transfer agents at the bank medallion stamp the bond, it is highly liquid on the second market.

In financial markets, share is a unit of account for various investments.

It often means the stock of a corporation, but is also used for collective investments such as mutual funds, limited partnerships, and real estate investment trusts.
