What is Delta One trading?

Delta One trading refers to trading financial instruments whose price movements closely track, or have a 'delta' of one relative to, the underlying asset. These instruments typically include equity swaps, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), futures, and some types of structured products. Delta One desks in investment banks manage portfolios of these products, aiming to profit from small price differences, arbitrage opportunities, and by providing liquidity to clients. The strategies are generally considered low-risk in terms of directional market exposure, but they require sophisticated quantitative analysis and risk management.
