Abstract

In recent years, the market economy has declined due to the impact of COVID-19. Whether the person is a consumer or an investor, they both want to get more out of it. However, people often may be blinded by this idea of quick success, and then lose a lot. Taking the Archegos liquidation event as an example, this article analyzes the risk management of financial derivatives and their effectiveness when the financial market fluctuates through case studies. Through analysis, it can know that when buying or investing in an aggressive investment company, it may bring them high returns and may also bring them huge risks. Because they obtain returns through some of the characteristics of financial derivatives, it is very risky. The impact of this event on Nomura was analyzed by using the method of event research. Furthermore, through this incident, it found some loopholes and problems in financial management and gave rationalization suggestions.
