OVER THE COUNTER DERIVATIVES

Over the counter derivatives are contracts that financial institutions, banks, insurance companies and hedge funds enter into with each other to place bets on everything from currencies to interest rates to credit defaults. The unregulated (and practically invisible) $450 trillion market is either the best thing that happened to risk management or it's going to bring down the entire financial system.
