- A standardized contract, traded on a futures exchange, to buy or sell a 90-day Eurodollar time deposit at a certain date in the future, at a certain yield. At expiration, the official rate quoted on a 90-day Eurodollar time deposit by the British Bankers Association (BBA) determines the final settlement. Eurodollar futures contracts do not permit actual delivery of a Eurodollar time deposit; rather they settle in cash.
