Futures contracts involve the exchange of goods or cash at a predetermined future date. This can be achieved through the tender and receipt of the underlying commodity or the payment and receipt of cash. These processes, known as settlement, play a crucial role in the functioning of futures markets. Settlement ensures that both parties fulfill their obligations and that the contract is closed. It is an important concept to understand in the world of finance and can have significant implications for investors.
