Contracts for differences (CFDs)
A type of derivative contract in which two parties agree to exchange the difference in value of a specified asset—eg currency, commodity, share or index—between the time the contract is opened and the time it is closed. The contract payout will be the difference in the price of the asset between these two times. Contracts for difference (CFDs) are similar to spread betting. CFDs may potentially be used for insider dealing and market manipulation and are therefore within the scope for the Market Abuse Regulation (EU) 596/2014. CFDs are a potential source of harm to retail investors. The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has imposed restrictions on the terms on which retail customers may enter into CFDs, including limits on a customer’s leverage, closing out a customer’s position when their funds fall to 50% of the margin needed to maintain their open positions on their CFD account, and a requirement that a client cannot lose more than the total funds in their CFD account.
Final dividend
A final dividend is typically approved by the shareholders following a recommendation from the board after the annual accounts have been drawn up and becomes a debt payable to shareholders once it has been approved. If a final dividend is declared under the terms of a resolution that states that it is payable at a future date then the dividend is due and payable only on that future date. Compare with interim dividend.
Pig
A US colloquialism describing a container used to ship or store radioactive materials. The thick walls of this shielding device, which are usually made of lead or depleted uranium, protect the person handling the container from radiation. Large containers used for spent fuel storage are commonly called casks. Also an implement used for cleaning rust and alien substances from a piping system.
