- InsuranceThe risk-management approach that pays an explicit upfront premium to remove the downside while keeping the upside — which in derivatives means buying an option rather than selling a future.
- NomineeThe person you name to receive custody of your money or securities when you die — a custodian who must pass the asset to the legal heirs, not the owner of it.
- Term insuranceLife cover for a fixed period: if you die during the term your nominee receives the sum assured, and if you survive it nothing is paid back. It is the cheapest way to buy protection.
