Hedging reduces price risk because the gain (loss) in one market is oIIset by an equivalent loss (gain) in the other market. The risk that Iutures and spot price may not change by the same amount is called basis risk and is deIined as the variance oI the basis. The lower the basis risk, the more eIIective is hedging.

Topic: Significance of basis in effective risk management: A study of Indian futures market In the context oI a Iutures market, the diIIerence between Iutures and spot price is termed as the basis. The signiIicance oI the basis lies in its use as an inIormation source to predict Iuture spot price oI the asset underlying the Iutures contract. Studying the basis is important because it is Iundamental to understanding the most important Iunction oI a Iutures market i.e. hedging or price risk management.
Hedging reduces price risk because the gain (loss) in either (Iutures or spot) market is oIIset by an equivalent loss (gain) in the other market. However, this is true only to the extent that Iutures and spot price change by exactly the same magnitude, which may not always be the case. II Iutures and spot price change by unequal magnitude, i.e. the basis changes, hedging may not be successIul. Gain in one market may not be equal to loss in the other market resulting in a net loss. The risk that Iutures and spot price may not change by the same amount is called basis risk and is deIined as the variance oI the basis. Hedging eIIectiveness depends primarily upon basis risk, the lower the basis risk, the more eIIective is hedging. Hence, a complete understanding oI the basis is essential beIore undertaking any hedging activity. In this project, we aim to undertake such a study oI basis risk Ior Iutures market in India.
