Because my country’s financial derivatives have few varieties and are strictly regulated, and listed companies are subject to more stringent supervision than ordinary companies, listed companies do not use financial derivatives much.

1. Convertible bonds are most commonly used by listed companies, and many listed companies use this form for refinancing. You can go to the China Securities Regulatory Commission website to find data on the issuance scale of convertible bonds in each year (it is a bit reluctant to count convertible bonds as financial derivatives);

2. Listed companies also issue asset-backed securitization Products, there are not many cases of this, just search online;

3. Listed companies use stock options to provide equity incentives to executives, you can search for cases online;

4 , When a listed company is merged, the acquirer usually gives public investors a cash option, but this is a bit reluctant to be regarded as a financial derivative;

5. If the main business of a listed company involves large amounts of energy and raw materials When trading agricultural products, hedging is often used to lock in risks, or if there are large amounts of foreign exchange receipts and payments, foreign exchange financial products are also used to avoid risks. Please check the petroleum, petrochemical, aviation, steel, non-ferrous metal industries and related industries. The annual reports of listed companies with a large number of import and export businesses should disclose derivative financial products transactions in detail.

In general, the data is very scattered, and it takes a lot of effort to collect it.
