The difference between institutional investors and futures companies.
In the current environment, the institutional investors who participate in financial derivatives investment in China are mainly brokers. Compared with futures companies, institutional investors have two main advantages:

1, with abundant funds. At present, most futures companies with strong financial strength in the industry are securities companies. The financial strength of institutional investors in securities firms is much stronger than that of futures companies.

2. The self-operated development of securities firms started earlier, and their investment ability and experience are superior to those of futures companies. However, the investment professionalism and variety research and development ability of brokerage institutional investors are not as good as those of professional futures companies. At the same time, institutional investors are more inclined to invest in related varieties or markets because of the motivation of pursuing profits, and their funds have strong liquidity in cross-product and cross-market transactions. The biggest advantage of futures companies is that they are familiar with the trading rules of derivatives, futures and options business, and have internal control system and risk management system for financial derivatives, a special financial instrument.

It can be seen from the above that comprehensive futures companies will be the most ideal market makers in China futures market. Compared with institutional investors, its advantage lies in its professional investment and research and development capabilities.
