Cliquet A series of forward start options in which the first option is active (and it's strike price is set) immediately. The second option becomes active on the expiration date of the first option, with the strike set as the market value of the underlying on that day. The process continues for as many options as exist in the cliquet. Importantly, the entire premium is paid at once. Cliquets are useful for an investor who wants to lock in an option for a significant period of time, with the strike price adjusting to reflect market realities. It is also known as a reset option or a ratchet option. How to thank TFD for its existence?
