DEFINITION of 'Exchange Traded Derivative'. A financial instrument whose value is based on the value of another asset, and that trades on a regulated exchange.
The derivatives market is where these instruments are traded. Usually, the underlying assets used in derivatives are bonds, stocks, commodities, currencies, market indexes, and interest rates. The derivatives market is either for over-the-counter derivatives or exchange-traded ones. The OTC derivatives like swaps do not run through an intermediary while the exchange-traded derivatives, by its name, go through derivatives exchanges. The two groups are very different in terms of their legal nature and the manner by which they are traded.
