This is dreadful, leaden literature — but everyone has sort of put up with it, and got used to it. They were meant to be superseded, in 2011, by the [[2011 Equity Derivatives Definitions]], thrillingly written by a squadron of [[chatbot]]s from [[Linklaters]] in bang-up-to-date, state-of-the-art, super duper hi-tech [[Financial products Markup Language]], but — well, every one still uses the stupid old 2002 versions. The [[JC]] being in the first rank a pragmatist, you will find little information here about the newer booklet — other than the odd wry remark about the [[Hindenburg]], and the mortal scarring to those poor folk at [[Linklaters]] who wrote the damn things, but plenty about the ghastly old {{2002equitydefs}} — a whole [[Equity Derivatives Anatomy|anatomy]] dedicated to that — seeing as that is what everyone still uses.

Commonplaces of the sort any mug knows instinctively without needing to be told are said, said, and said again; abstrusities about which even the ''cognoscenti'' might like more elucidation like what counts as a “{{eqderivprov|Dividend}}are left tantalisingly under-determined.
