ISDA derivatiViews: Setting Out The Value Proposition Of Derivatives
Date 24/03/2025
History enthusiasts may have heard of the Code of Hammurabi, an early legal text from ancient Mesopotamia, carved into a stone slab about 3,700 years ago.

Those tools have evolved significantly over the centuries, but the basic concepts remain unchanged – and they continue to be applied by companies and governments around the world for one simple reason: they are valuable.
